Using interactive 3D visualization for rapid discovery of "hidden" outliers and correlations in
clinical trial studies
Michael Zeitlin
Aqumin LLC, USA
As precision medicine advances, a dramatic increase in data collection, complexity and analysis is occurring. Traditional
statistical techniques employed to hunt for relationships between parameters will be more tedious than ever and
exploratory analysis of novel datasets could miss answers to important questions one didn’t even know to ask. An innovative
approach using interactive 3D visualization is presented showing outlier identification and rapid iteration over investigative
questions with multiple datasets. The mind’s eye is a powerful pattern recognition machine that can detect subtle changes in
data when it is presented as 3D geometry using color and motion. The observer can quickly see through the complexity to
identify patterns and anomalies, empowering investigators to discover the right questions to ask. Interactive 3D visualization
techniques which draw data as geometry with relative movement enable finding answers quickly. Datasets can be merged, re-
arranged and displayed on-the-fly while the eye is watching. A single solitary outlier can be detected and understood while
observing millions of data points. Software to perform this rapid data ingestion, integration and display now exists which can
help process huge datasets effortlessly. A live example will be presented.
Biography
With over 30 years experience in scientific and business computing Michael is a recognized leader in visualization technology worldwide. He created the oil
industry’s first commercial 3D visualization center. He received the Carnegie Mellon and American Management Institute Award for Innovation in Information
Technology. His work was honored with a permanent position in the Archives of the Smithsonian Institution. He founded Magic Earth, LLC. in 2000, and as
Chairman and CEO, achieved profitability in three months and was acquired by Halliburton that same year for $100 million. Michael holds a . in Earth and
Space Sciences and . in Marine Environmental Science from the State University of New York at StonyBrook.
