Using machine learning for early detection of eye diseases: this is what DeepMind, a division of Google, and London's Moorfields Eye Hospital are planning. The two partners are working on a five-year research project which aims to use algorithms to speed up the process for detecting eye diseases via scans carried out at Moorfields Eye Hospital. Ars Technica looked at the project in more detail. Data science is no longer fantasy but reality. Back in December 2015, we talked about an algorithm that can predict how sugar levels vary from one person to another after a meal.
