Title
Applying Machine Learning To Assess Dietary Patterns
Summary
The evaluation of food intake is important in scientific research and clinical practice to understand the relationship between diet and health conditions of an individual or a population. The overarching goal of this project is to discover objective markers of dietary intake with biomarkers. Such an approach employs error reduction strategies that can help alleviate concerns associated with highly error-prone traditional dietary assessment techniques.
Aims

Compare identification of biomarkers associated with various dietary patterns via conventional statistical models to machine learning approaches.
