Data Science is all about the processes and methods to access and analyze data to gain insights for informed decision making. To promote the awareness and analytic technology of Big Data, IEEE EMBS and the IEEE Big Data Initiative are organizing a Data Analytics Competition. The competition will be held during the International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (IEEE BHI2017), 16-19 February 2017 in Orlando, Florida, and is open to all participants of the conference.
