AI-Enabled Modeling of Cervical Cancer Registry Data for Enhanced Surveillance and Prevention Impact

Steven Wanyee of IntelliSOFT Consulting Limited in Kenya will develop an AI-based framework for analysis of cervical cancer registry data to identify epidemiological trends and improve surveillance and prevention efforts. The analysis will incorporate variables such as demographic factors, geographic locations, screening history, HPV vaccination rates, and treatment outcomes. They will use natural language processing to extract and analyze unstructured data. Machine learning algorithms will be used to identify patterns and trends in cervical cancer incidence rates, stage at diagnosis, treatment outcomes, and survival rates. They will develop predictive models to forecast cervical cancer burdens, estimate the potential impact of interventions for prevention, and guide resource allocation and targeted prevention strategies. They will also create user-friendly interfaces and visualizations to enable policymakers, public health professionals, and researchers to easily interpret the modeled data and use it effectively.
