Spreading of diseases through comorbidity networks across life and gender [PDF]
New Journal of Physics 16, 115013, (2014), 2014 The state of health of patients is typically not characterized by a single disease alone but by multiple (comorbid) medical conditions. These comorbidities may depend strongly on age and gender. We propose a specific phenomenological comorbidity network of human diseases that is based on medical claims data of the entire population of Austria.

An Apparatus for the Simulation of Breathing Disorders: Physically Meaningful Generation of Surrogate Data [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The rapidly increasing prevalence of debilitating breathing disorders, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), calls for a meaningful integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare. While this promises improved detection and monitoring of breathing disorders, AI techniques are almost invariably "data hungry" which highlights ...
