Predicting from aggregated data
Aggregated data, which refers to a collection of data summarized from multiple sources, is a
technique commonly used in different fields of research including healthcare, web application, and
sensor network. Aggregated data is often employed to handle issues such as privacy, scalability,
and reliability. However, accurately predicting individual outcomes from grouped datasets can be
very difficult. In this thesis, we designed a new learning method, a Mixture of Expert (MoE) model,
focused on individual-level prediction when training variables are aggregated. We utilized the MoE
model, trained and validated using the eICU Collaborative Research patient datasets, to conduct
a series of studies. Our results showed that applying grouping functions to the classification of
aggregated data across demographic and behavior metrics could remain effective. This technique
was verified by comparing two separately trained MoE models that were evaluated on the same
datasets. Finally, we estimated non-aggregated datasets from
spatio-temporal aggregated records
by expressing the problem into the frequency domain, and trained an autoregressive model for
predicting future stock prices. This process can be repeated, offering a potential solution to the
issue of learning from aggregated data.Ope
