Big Data Science and Its Applications in Biomedical Research and Healthcare: A Review

Abstract

There is a consensus among scientists that the analysis of Big Data in health care (such as electronic health records, patient reported outcomes or in motion data) can improve clinical research and the quality of care provided to patients. Big Data mainly deals with the storage and processing of large scale and complex structure data sets for which the traditional methods prove to be incapable. They show a slow responsiveness and lack of scalability, performance and accuracy. The paper provides a systematic review of recent progress and advances in Big Data science, healthcare and the human genome research one of the most promising medical and the healthcare domains. Further the paper includes some of the major challenges and opportunities with a focus on the upcoming and promising areas of medical research: image, signal, and genomics-based analytics to improve big data applications in healthcare in the summarized form.
