Open Call #1 – INNOVATE Call for Tech is closed.
Stay tuned: Open Call #2 is coming in Q3 2022
In Open Call #1 HosmartAI was calling for innovative tech Startups/SMEs developing AI solutions, that can be implemented within the Healthcare sector. A total budget of €200,000 is available to support 4 startups/SMEs in the design, development and integration of their health-interoperable technologies into the HosmartAI’s platform.
Applicants could submit a proposal for solving a particular HosmartAI challenge, or for bringing new technology to be integrated in the HosmartAI platform.
APPLICATIONS ARE CLOSED
Open Call Topics
Topic #1: AI- or data-based services for the healthcare sector enabled by the HosmartAI platform
SMEs were invited to submit a proposal to implement or adapt AI/data-based solutions on the HosmartAI platform – to be promoted through the HosmartAI Marketplace. Both proprietary and open-source developments were eligible.
Proposals should make interest from healthcare institutions plausible, preferably illustrated with a brief use case. The sustainability of the solution must be discussed, including maintenance and draft business model.
Topic #2: Creation of a HL7-FHIR de-identification and pseudonymization tool
This tool should consider all fields and combinations of fields that need to be replaced with non-PII (Personally Identifiable Information) data. It should also provide configurable levels of retaining the initial information and configurable options of pseudonymizing data that can be used for AI and data analytics.
Topic #3: Creation of a federated database system based on a popular open source FHIR Server implementation
A system that should allow the creation of a federated database with HL7-FHIR data, while avoiding ID collisions as much as possible. In case of collisions there should be a mechanism to still retrieve the information based on additional flags (request/response headers, extra response parameters, etc.).
Topic #4: Vector space map with 3D-5D interactive graphic interface
Develop a module/utility function that contains a multi-dimensional matrix with physical coordinates and other elemental properties. Each element in the data model/vector space will contain container for x, y and z spatial coordinates, a time dimension, as well as several other properties. These include density, type of matter, temperature, voltage, conductivity, colour, value, and other possible properties which can be stateless and defined by the user as needed.
Topic #5: Data Parsing and Mapping Utility
An application or utility function that can translate various data types that need to be used by HosmartAI partners, classify them and convert into standards (hl7) that are readable by various applications and easily integratable to the HosmartAI ecosystem (a generalized data parsing utility for the HosmartAI ecosystem).
This data dictionary would first be established on a baseline from known relationships defined by users, but would learn over time using AI techniques, such as NLP. The library needs to be built in a generic format where various data elements and sets can be defined as input, then processed and converted into some form of a fixed-format, with AI methods used for a feedback or reinforced learning loop.
Detailed specifications on each topic can be found under section 2.3 (Topics) of the Guidelines for Applicants.
