Artificial Intelligence Applications in Emerging Healthcare Technologies presents the latest advances and state-of-the-art methods and applications of computer science and emerging AI technologies in health and medicine. The book explores the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare for medical decision-making and data analysis, tackling topics such as cloud computing, cybersecurity, the internet of things, natural language processing, virtual health, data science applied to healthcare, personalized medicine, imaging, diagnosis, drug discovery, and diseases, among others.
Chapters present adaptations or improvements on previous models and algorithms to process data from different sources. Other chapters investigate new formulations for the optimization of known procedures and algorithms. Finally, all chapters use experimental methods to study problems of interest in healthcare. This is a great resource for researchers and students who want to learn how machine learning algorithms and other data science techniques have been implemented to solve healthcare-related problems.
