How Would You Classify People? -IT

Some have suggested that neural networks could be applied to people to indicate how likely they are to develop a disease or even become criminals. The idea is to add a child’s personal characteristics, demographics, and genealogy into a neural network, and the neural network will classify if that youngster is at risk for a disease or for aberrant behavior.

Choose either susceptibility to disease or to criminal behavior.

Make the following lists, explaining why you chose each one. Justify at least two different considerations:

1. What personal characteristics would be useful?
2. What demographic factors would strongly influence a person’s future?
3. What, if any, inherited characteristics can predict a child’s future?
