The 1st International ECML-PKDD Workshop-Tutorial on Learning on Real and Synthetic Medical Time Series Data (MED-TIME)
MED-TIME 2025 will take place in Porto, Portugal, on September 19, 2025.
This workshop will investigate the challenges and advances in machine learning for medical time series data, which emerge in patient monitoring, disease progression modeling, and clinical decision support for patients with chronic conditions. A key challenge in working with real medical data is handling sparsity and missingness, as the more people are recorded, the less data is there for each one. While synthetic data generation seems like a solution, synthetic medical time series pose challenges themselves, as ensuring its utility alongside real data requires careful validation. At the same time, multimodal data integration, explainability, and forecasting remain critical for developing reliable and interpretable models. This workshop will bring together experts working on time series, medical timestamped data, and the generation of synthetic data, temporal and static, to discuss research and open challenges in the field.
