Abstract Smartphones and wearable devices provide a major opportunity to transform our understanding of the mechanisms, determinants, and consequences of diseases. For example, around 9 in 10 people own a smartphone in the United Kingdom, while one-fifth of US adults own wearable technologies. This high level of device ownership means that many people could contribute …

Abstract I will present a talk on "Dynamical data science and AI" for quantifying dynamical biological processes, disease progressions and various phenotypes, including dynamic network biomarkers (DNB) for early-warning signals of critical transitions, spatial-temporal information (STI) transformation for short-term time-series prediction, knockoff conditional mutual information (KOCMI) for quantifying interventional causality, partial cross-mapping (PCM) for causal …

Abstract Many natural systems exhibit complex dynamics and are prone to sudden changes or ‘regime shifts’. At the same time, many of these systems are sparsely observed posing considerable challenges for modeling and control. Here I will describe recent developments in empirical dynamic modeling (EDM) for inference of bifurcations and anticipation of unseen dynamical regimes …
