Discussion items
| Item | Summary |
|---|---|
| Use Cases | Failed Clinical Trials Persuasive models, QSPR |
| Implementation | Support those implementing models and a model environment. |
| Reproducibility | Tie the pitfalls to larger issues of Model and Implementation reproducibility |
| Training and training material | Should we develop a wider training course? Fundamental part of Life Science capability Who to partner with here? Online Courses (Moots) or add to others (EdX etc) |
| Partners/collaborators | Toolkit providers Platform providers Community sites Service providers |
| Be clear about AI definition | Do we also mean Augmented AI NLP, Machine learning and Neural Networks |
| Asking Pharma on their AI strategies for training/best practice | How best to understand current challenges - see some of the survey outputs in community site |
Action items
- Document Areas for AI Community
- Best Practices Group Folder
- Working Document
Examples of pitfalls approaches: Mark R, Andrew C
Short compilation of pitfalls (and especially if there has been an impact or potential impact to data output or decision making)
- Can we define any metrics
Aim to show the business value a project that would address these issues
- What would best pratices look like: - Peter H
- How would this best practices look from the customer side?
- Literature Examples/Signposting - Jabe, Carlos, Frederik, Lena
- How best to draw on existing sites and communities?
- What is different about Pistoia Alliance approach
