• Abstract: Machine learning (ML) transforms healthcare by enabling predictive analytics, personalized treatments, and improved patient outcomes. However, traditional ML workflows often require specialized skills, infrastructure, and resources, limiting accessibility for many healthcare professionals. This paper explores how BigQuery ML Cloud service helps healthcare researchers and data analysts to build and deploy models using SQL, without need for advanced ML knowledge. Our results demonstrate that the Boosted Tree model achieved the highest performance among the three models making it highly effective for diabetes prediction. BigQuery ML directly integrates predictive analytics into their workflows to inform decision-making and support patient care. We reveal this capability through a case study on diabetes prediction using the Diabetes Health Indicators Dataset. Our study underscores BigQuery ML's role in democratizing machine learning, enabling faster, scalable, and efficient predictive analytics that can directly enhance healthcare decision-making processes. This study aims to bridge the gap between advanced machine learning and practical healthcare analytics by providing detailed insights into BigQuery ML's capabilities. By demonstrating its utility in a real-world case study, we highlight its potential to simplify complex workflows and expand access to predictive tools for a broader audience of healthcare professionals.

  equivariant neural networks have gained increased interest in the deep learning community. They have been successfully applied in the medical domain where symmetries in the data can be effectively exploited to build more accurate and robust models. Mobile, on-device implementations of deep learning solutions have been developed for medical applications. However, equivariant models are commonly implemented using large and computationally expensive architectures, not suitable to run on mobile devices. In this work, we design and test an equivariant version of MobileNetV2 and further optimize it with model quantization to enable more efficient inference.
