Our research at glance

From High Dimensional Data to Healthcare Provider Profiling

01

Data Collection

UM-KECC has been maintaining a large ESRD database that was first assembled in 1988. This ESRD database is the backbone for our research.
02

Data Transformation and integration

We use SAS, SQL and R to alter the structure and format of the raw data as needed.
03

Statistical Methods

Develop statistical methods and computational algorithms which include high dimensonal variable selection, survival analysis, statistical optimization and causal inference.
04

Healthcare Provider Profiling

Develop methods to measure the performance of health care providers by supplying interested parties with information on the outcomes of health care.
