Especially if you're a CS student. However I didn't let that prevent me from reaching my goals. One of my goals was to finish university with a good project that I'd be proud of. And considering that I'm a huge fun of machine learning, I convinced my parter that we should build something with machine learning. We decide to tackle a serious problem in Ghana : inconsistency in patients' medical records across hospitals. We set out to build a platform that will enable various hospitals in Ghana to securely share patient data. We also wanted to develop a machine learning model that predict chronic diseases such as heart disease.</p> <h2> The Project </h2> <p>The system consists of a module for hospitals to securly transmit patient information to prevent inconsistencies in data. The system also has a machine learning component that predicts heart disease of the patients' data.<br> The project is quite big so it's still in development.</p> <h2> How I built it: </h2> <ol> <li>React JS for web app frontend</li> <li>Firebase for backend and authentication</li> <li>Python and Tensorflow for Machine learning model</li> </ol> <p>I ran into a lot of issues especially with the machine learning model. However, stackoverflow saved me a lot of the times!</p> <h2> Link to Code </h2> <p>This article will be updated with the link to the github repo.</p> <h2> Additional Thoughts / Feelings / Stories </h2> <p>This was one challenging project I loved buiding!</p> 2020devgrad octograd2020 githubsdp machinelearning
