2018 TMU x MIT(Sana) Hackathon

A. TMUxMIT Hackthon?

• International Center for Health Information Technology, Taipei Medical University collaborates with MIT Sana Global Team, Boston, US, and MIT Critical Data (MIT - Critical Data, @MITCriticalData, mitcriticaldata) to promote an intensive integrative program designed to build local capacity and enhance locally sustained innovation. The program is deliberately structured to advance projects from idea to implementation.
• This hackathon brings participants and local clinicians together to share ideas and bring theory into practice. The 3 day event allows engineers to immediately apply concepts to actual projects, and work in multidisciplinary teams to develop rapid prototypes and solve real problems. These projects may then be continued as research or startup ventures, while also allowing local students to expand their health informatics knowledge.
• Grouping method : each team will consist of 4~5 people, the goal is to group participants from different fields into one team (group member assigned by TMU )
• In order to have a fair hackathon, and let all the participants to be able to engage actively; 2018 TMU only accept personal applicant this year. Therefor, please fill out the questionnaire carefully so that we can do out best to group you with like-minded people. 

B. Rating Criteria

We'll rate your final product based on:

• VALUE 

     possible influence/ value to patient, medical, healthcare...

• FEASIBILITY

• INNOVATION

E. Participant Objectives

The participants are brought together with local clinicians to share ideas and innovate in an organized Hackathon, bringing theory into practice. The 3 days event allows engineers to immediately apply the concepts and lessons on actual projects, working in multidisciplinary teams to develop rapid prototypes and solve real problems. These projects then may be continued as research or startup ventures, while other students can benefit by continuing with more extensive health informatics training. 

• Intensive program for doctors、computer science and management students
• Accelerated exposure to global health informatics
• Introduction to healthcare big data and platforms
• Understand the complexities of the clinical thought process and the factors that drive quality improvement
• Intensive practical hacking sessions using existing open source tool

F. Suggested database

• Mimic3 (https://mimic.physionet.org/)
• eICU (https://eicu-crd.mit.edu/about/eicu/)

Theme: From Complex Healthcare Data to Serious Clinical Solutions - the AIoT approach

While Big Data has become part of the trend in 21st century, the needs for analyzation and application of healthcare related data have stand out as one of the most urgent priority. By combining artificial intelligence and IoT into the normal clinical process, it would enhance the traditional clinical experience in many different aspects. No matter it's the clinical experience between doctor and patient,reduction of cost or improvement of management...etc, the AIoT approach is believed to be the future best solution!

 Thus, we would like to invite all the best hackers to join us, together with the experienced mentors from Taiwan, US, India and Singapore, we can't wait to see how this year's TMUxMIT(Sana) Hackathon would be!

主題: 人工智慧x健康物聯網 (AIoT)- 從健康大數據到臨床解決方案

A. 活動起源

• 社會結構改變 ：少子化 、人口老高齡社會

• 目前面臨 之問題 ：醫療照護費用支出增加、與家庭 照護人力短缺、實體醫療資源不足社會財政負擔 沉重 、診間病人與醫生之溝通傳達等

• 科技的進步與發展 ：無所不在 的資通訊科技服務 (Wifi , 3G, 4G, RFID, Bluetooth…)  、物聯 網、 雲端運算技術人工智慧、 穿戴式 裝置及手機 app 應用之發展

• 民眾健康意識的形成 :大眾健康觀念諸漸形成 ，開始注重 自身保健與健康

B. 活動目的

• 欲解決之問題 ：

在原有的 醫療資訊基礎上，利用人工智慧技術來更效益整合行動智慧的感應器、物聯網標準規範、醫療數據擴增智慧分析與病患行為等技術，以改善醫療過程、降低病患的醫療支出臨床之應用甚至建立以人為中心，完整且安全的醫療保健系統病人與師之間更良好之溝通診斷

C. 活動方式

• 改變以往組隊報名方式，以個人單位
• 主辦單位透過問卷調查方式，協助媒合，了解各位專長與有興趣之題目類型， 請務必認真填寫
• 主辦單位將會以合作競賽之方式，約 4~5 人一組(基本上以每隊皆會有醫界人士+程式語言高手+相關領域學生、專家為目標)，預估將有 20 組進行競賽，名單確認後會在賽前公告隊伍並通知同一組員之聯繫方式。
• 競賽 時間自 107/10/19 日上午 9:00 開始 ，持續進行至 107/10/21 日上午 8:00 點，3天2夜不斷電之方式，競賽 結束後將給予 各團 隊 8 分鐘介紹成果之簡報及 prototype 
• 每天隊皆有導師回饋與建議之時間，能及時與各隊導師討論詢問
• 前三 名得獎團隊將可分別獲金新台幣 80,000 元、 60,000 元、 40,000 元，另有特別獎項行公布
