A Human/Machine Partnership to Accelerate Biomedical Research

  • Pietro Michelucci | EyesOnALZ

Our greatest opportunity for problem-solving comes not from humans alone or from Artificial Intelligence (AI) alone, but by combining them in distributed networks. Leveraging the complementary abilities of humans and machines allows us to create unprecedented capabilities today. The EyesOnALZ citizen science project accelerates Alzheimer’s disease research by strategically combining machine learning and Crowd AI (human computation) methods. The specific human/machine partnerships that enabled this capability have co-evolved with algorithmic advancements and computing platforms like Azure.
