Oral Health: Quantification of Quality Measures
Journal Title: Journal of Dental Specialities - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
You don’t have to be a mathematician to have a feel for numbers! John Forbes Nash, Jr. being an astute geometrician himself, couldn’t have said more. This feel for numbers has witnessed an interest in ‘Big Data’ grown exponentially in modern times. Research calls, commercial insights, and government ascendancies, all seem to be directed on exploiting the potential of technology to seize and analyze massive amounts of data in tangibly creative demeanors. Speaking of which, the data in dental health domain is as rich since it is gathered from various sources like public health surveys, census inferences, national health registries, electronic health records, genomic data etc.
