Glossary for public health surveillance in the age of data science
Arnaud Chiolero
Public health surveillance is the ongoing systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of data, closely integrated with the timely dis… (see more)semination of the resulting information to those responsible for preventing and controlling disease and injury. With the rapid development of data science, encompassing big data and artificial intelligence, and with the exponential growth of accessible and highly heterogeneous health-related data, from healthcare providers to user-generated online content, the field of surveillance and health monitoring is changing rapidly. It is, therefore, the right time for a short glossary of key terms in public health surveillance, with an emphasis on new data-science developments in the field.

Clustering for Continuous-Time Hidden Markov Models.

David A. Stephens
We develop clustering procedures for longitudinal trajectories based on a continuous-time hidden Markov model (CTHMM) and a generalized line… (see more)ar observation model. Specifically in this paper, we carry out infinite mixture model-based clustering for CTHMM and achieve inference using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Specifically, for Bayesian nonparametric inference using a Dirichlet process mixture model, we utilize restricted Gibbs sampling split-merge proposals to expedite the MCMC algorithm. We employ the proposed algorithm to the simulated data as well as a large real data example, and the results demonstrate the desired performance of the new sampler.
