In the field of medical research, the ability to uncover and understand complex relationships within large data sets is of paramount importance. High-order correlation mining, such as Hypergraph Learning, emerges as a crucial approach in this context, offering the potential to reveal complex interdependencies between variables that are not clearly visible through traditional analysis techniques. This method goes beyond simple pairwise associations and delves into the multidimensional interactions that can influence health outcomes, treatment effectiveness, and disease progression. With the advent of big data analytics in healthcare, leveraging high-quality correlations can lead to groundbreaking discoveries and innovations in medical practice. The main challenge in mining high-order correlations within medical applications lies in the complexity and heterogeneity of healthcare data. Medical datasets often include a wide range of data types, such as genomic information, clinical records, and imaging studies, each of which presents unique analytical challenges. Furthermore, the sheer volume of data can be overwhelming, requiring advanced computational techniques to efficiently extract meaningful patterns. Another important issue is the interpretability of the results; Although high-order correlations can provide profound insights, translating these findings into actionable clinical knowledge requires careful consideration and validation by experts.

This research topic aims to explore the potential of high-performance correlation mining in medical applications, with a focus on developing new methodologies and applications that can effectively deal with the complexity and diversity of healthcare data. The goal is to answer specific questions, such as how to identify and analyze high-order correlations in complex medical data sets, and how to apply these correlations to improve patient care, disease prevention, and health outcomes. By testing hypotheses related to the integration of electronic health records and imaging data, and through the development of advanced computational frameworks, this study seeks to improve the interpretability and applicability of high-order correlation findings in clinical settings.
