Neural Networks

-Interconnected simple processing devices or simplified models of the brain and nervous system that consist of a considerable number of elements or units (analogs of neurons) linked together in a pattern of connections (analogs of synapses) -One that would model the entire nervous system would have three types of units. ◦Input units (analogs of sensory neurons) receive information to be processed. ◦Hidden units (analogs to all of the neurons other than sensory or motor) work in between input and output units. ◦Output units (analogs of motor neurons) where the outcomes or results of the processing are found

Data Quality

-Necessary for it to be valuable and meaningful -Characteristics of valuable, quality information: Accessibility, security, timeliness, accuracy, relevancy, completeness, flexibility, reliability, objectivity, utility, transparency, verifiability, and reproducibility

BYOD/Social Media

-Policies may restrict use to devices that are issued by the organization, secured, and routinely audited -Professionals who engage with social media need to be especially cognizant of a potential breach of confidentiality of patient information

Information

-Processed data that has meaning -Data that is processed using knowledge

Data Integrity

-Refers to whole, complete, correct, and consistent data -Can be compromised through human error, viruses, worms, other bugs, hardware failures or crashes, transmission errors, and/or hackers entering the system

Artificial Intelligence

-The field that deals with the conception, development, and implementation of informatics tools based on intelligent technologies -Attempts to capture the complex processes of human thought and intelligence

Input Device examples

-The keyboard or mouse -Game controllers or pads -Web cameras (webcams) -A stylus (often used with tablets or personal digital assistants) -Image scanners (for copying a digital image of a document or picture)

Plug and Play
