  • “Assessing the Diabetic Population: Statistical Analysis of T2D Excel File”

    The T2D excel file Download T2D excel filecontains all patients that you identified with an ICD diagnosis of diabetes that visited a clinic or hospital within the past year. In this data set, you pulled all procedures and observations (OBS), race (RACE), and gender (GENDER) for each patient. You also provided each patient with a study ID (STUDYID) to avoid having personal identifiable information in the registry. For this assignment, you may use any statistical software (including excel). You must provide descriptions of your methods and code (if applicable) used to calculate your responses in addition to the numeric answers for each question. You will be graded heavily on your description of your methods or “the how you got your answer.” Assess the overall population How many unique patients are there in the file? Which races do the patients represent? How many patients (# and proportion %) in each race? What is the average age of the population? Range? Median? Identify patients with Hemoglobin A1C testing on record What is the name of the OBS value that codes for A1C test/observation in the data set? How many patients (# and %) had ≥1 test on record? How many total tests were conducted during this time period for the entire population? What is the Average, Median, and Range of tests among those who were tested? How many patients are managing their diabetes (defined as ≥2 A1C tests)? How many patients in each race have their diabetes managed/unmanaged? What is the average age of the managed diabetes population? Range? Median?

  • “Intake Briefing for Middle Managers: Internal Audit of Employee Use of Company Laptops for Work From Home Arrangements” Introduction: Welcome, middle managers. As part of our company’s “Work From Home” arrangements, we will be conducting

    Your task: Develop an “intake” briefing for middle managers who will be assisting in the planning and execution of an internal audit of employee use of company owned laptops as part of the company’s “Work From Home” arrangements. The purpose of an “intake” briefing is to get everyone “on the same page” with respect to what will be done, who will do it, and what the roles & responsibilities of the managers will be during the audit (e.g. assist with employee contacts and “smooth ruffled feathers” amongst their workers).
    Background: The purpose of the audit is to determine how the laptops are being used by the employees working from home (what corporate and non corporate systems, services, networks, and websites are being accessed) and to uncover, if possible, any misuse (e.g. usage that is outside of the company’s acceptable use policy). The audit should also look for evidence of laptops that are improperly configured or have vulnerable software installed.
    Background: The company will follow the Information System Security Audit Process as defined by Harris & Maymi in the CISSP All-in-One Exam Guide, 8th edition. The steps are:
    Determine Goals
    Involve the right business unit leaders
    Determine the scope
    Choose the audit team
    Plan the audit
    Conduct the audit
    Document the results
    Communicate the results
    Format: this week, your deliverable should be formatted as briefing paper (you will have a combination of paragraphs and bullet points). You should have an introduction, “analysis” section (explaining the ground rules and processes for how the audit will be conducted), and an appropriate summary section (including an appeal for cooperation and assistance). Include citations (in the text) and references (at the end) to support your work and allow your readers to fact check your analysis and conclusions.

  • Title: The Master Learning Algorithm: Potential Benefits and Concerns for Society The concept of a master learning algorithm, as proposed by Pedro Domingos in his book “The Master Algorithm,” has sparked much interest and discussion in the field of artificial intelligence

    Learning Objectives Covered
    LO1: Analyze the difference between machine learning and human learning capabilities
    LO2: Compare the human brain as the master algorithm to the machine as the potential master algorithm
    LO3: Conclude the importance of the continuing technological changes in machine learning and their impact to society, humanity, and people in general
    Prompt
    After reviewing chapter 10 in The Master Algorithm, the ppt on the Five Tribes of Machine Learning, and reviewing the Internet, write 550 words on what is required for the master learning algorithm to be effective.  How will this capable machine be a positive for society? How might it be a negative for society? The master algorithm has not been developed yet, but much of the work to understand what has to be done is available from sources such as these above.

    Assignment Submission:
    Submit your work in a Microsoft Word document in 550 words with in body citations and references for them in APA format.  Two citations in the body with references required, and more can be used to expand on the topic.
