AUSTIN, Texas, March 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Oracle today
announced that Prosper Digital Therapeutics (ProsperDTX), a company
that pairs patient medical data with causal machine learning to
develop personalized treatment plans, has selected Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure (OCI) Data Science to host its machine learning
platform. ProsperDTX uses Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse and OCI
Object Storage to ingest and store data from multiple sources,
including medical records systems and wearables, in real-time for
faster predictive modeling. With the unprecedented healthcare
demands brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, predictive data
science modeling is critical to driving patient-centered
solutions.
"We selected Oracle Cloud Infrastructure because of its unique
ability to quickly process vast amounts of data and enable a faster
time to market for our healthcare solutions. We've already realized
a 25 percent cost saving," said Robert
Goldberg, CEO, Prosper Digital Therapeutics. "With a proven
record of offering cloud solutions and expertise for the healthcare
industry, Oracle is an instrumental partner to our company's future
growth."
"We are excited to work with ProsperDTX to help improve their
ability to turn the power of machine learning into better patient
care," said Greg Pavlik, senior vice
president, data and AI, Oracle Cloud. "With our expertise in the
healthcare field and our robust ecosystem of healthcare customers,
we look forward to partnering with ProsperDTX to accelerate its
network expansion as the company grows into its next stage of
development."
ProsperDTX's machine learning technology develops causal models
for each individual, thereby developing a care plan that can avoid
complications related to cancer. By asking 'what
if' questions, such as 'would I still get lung cancer if I
continue smoking or stop smoking?' ProsperDTX can establish causal
relationships and model what would happen in the future in the
absence of a treatment or a delay of treatment in ways that
optimize outcomes. This can't be achieved with traditional machine
learning which has thus far focused on retrospective, or
backward-looking research. What likely caused this person's heart
attack? Was it smoking, bad diet, lack of exercise, all of the
above? ProsperDTX machine learning focuses on future outcomes, not
the past causes of current conditions.
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Data Science helps data scientists
rapidly build, train, deploy and manage machine learning models.
Unlike other data science products that focus on individual data
scientists, OCI Data Science helps improve the effectiveness of
data science teams with capabilities like shared projects, model
catalogs, team security policies, reproducibility and auditability.
Using OCI Data Science, ProsperDTX is designed to facilitate
compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability
Act (HIPAA) for every stage of the machine learning lifecycle, from
data ingestion to model deployment.
