DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nDecision making from incomplete and high dimension
 al datasets is a challenging task\, especially in the areas of medicine an
 d public health management. In particular\, the recent spread of infectiou
 s diseases such as Ebola\, Swine flu and Dengue has showcased the inadequa
 cies in evolving effective methods to contain them. The complexity lies in
  handling large number of people in short time\, similarities of clinical 
 symptoms and non-availability of resources (laboratoties and test equipmen
 t) that would cater to large population. A machine aided diagnosis based o
 n clinical and laboratory features would be of great help in disease manag
 ement. In this talk\, we discuss new techniques based on statistics and co
 mputational intelligence to predict true positives cases more effectively 
 [1]\, [2]\, [3]\, [4]\, [5]. Also\, we showcase its performance with the s
 tate-of-the-art methods being employed in this area[6]\, [7]\, [8]. In add
 ition\, we present the challenges and approaches being employed by us in i
 dentifying influential features from these databases.\n\nREFERENCES [1] M.
