BigData, intelligence artificielle, blockchain : guide pratique

Digitalization is transforming every aspect of life, it is also transforming deeply medicine. The digitalization era is characterized by a large production of new data streams while existing processes are progressively migrated, such as writing or imaging. The very large and fast-growing amount of data available requires new storage, transport and analytical tools. This paper presents some of them, such as natural language processing, artificial intelligence, and graph databases. A short introduction to the technology of blockchain is also provided, as it is increasingly used in some non-monetary transaction in medicine, such as data exchanges and consent management.
