The first part of this talk will focus on issues that data sc ientists and engineers have to address when working with this kind of data (e.g. unreliable labels\, the effect of confounding factors\, necessity o f clinical interpretability\, difficulties with fusing more data sets). Th e second part of the talk will include some real examples of this kind of data science in the field of neurology (prediction of motor deficits in Pa rkinson’s disease based on acoustic analysis of speech\, diagnosis of Park inson’s disease dysgraphia utilising online handwriting\, exploring the Mo zart effect in epilepsy based on the music information retrieval) and psyc hology (assessment of graphomotor disabilities in children with developmen tal dysgraphia).\nBiography\nJiri Mekyska is the head of the BDALab (Brain Diseases Analysis Laboratory) at the Brno University of Technology\, wher e he leads a multidisciplinary team of researchers (signal processing engi neers\, data scientists\, neurologists\, psychologists) with a special foc us on the development of new digital endpoints and digital biomarkers enab ling to better understand\, diagnose and monitor neurodegenerative (e.g. P arkinson’s disease) and neurodevelopmental (e.g. dysgraphia) diseases.

\nBiography

\nThe use of NLP in the realm of financial technology i s broad and complex\, with applications ranging from sentiment analysis an d named entity recognition to question answering. Large Language Models (L LMs) have been shown to be effective on a variety of tasks\; however\, no LLM specialized for the financial domain has been reported in the literatu re. In this work\, we present BloombergGPT\, a 50 billion parameter langua ge model that is trained on a wide range of financial data. We construct a 363 billion token dataset based on Bloomberg’s extensive data sources\, p erhaps the largest domain-specific dataset yet\, augmented with 345 billio n tokens from general-purpose datasets. We validate BloombergGPT on stand ard LLM benchmarks\, open financial benchmarks\, and a suite of internal b enchmarks that most accurately reflect our intended usage. Our mixed datas et training leads to a model that outperforms existing models on financial tasks by significant margins without sacrificing performance on general L LM benchmarks. Additionally\, we explain our modeling choices\, training p rocess\, and evaluation methodology.
