This handbook on Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare consists of two volumes. The first volume is dedicated to advances and applications of AI methodologies in specific healthcare problems, while the second volume is concerned with general practicality issues and challenges and future prospects in the healthcare context. 

The advent of digital and computing technologies has created a surge in the development of AI methodologies and their penetration to a variety of activities in our daily lives in recent years. Indeed, researchers and practitioners have designed and developed a variety of AI-based systems to help advance health and well-being of humans.

In this first volume, we present a number of latest studies in AI-based tools and techniques from two broad categories, viz., medical signal, image, and video processing as well as healthcare information and data analytics in Part 1 and Part 2, respectively. These selected studies offer readers practical knowledge and understanding pertaining to the recent advances and applications of AI in the healthcare sector.   

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed many aspects of our daily activities. Health and well-being of humans stand as one of the key domains where AI has achieved significant progresses, saving time, costs, and potentially lives, as well as fostering economic resilience, particularly under the COVID-19 pandemic environments.

This book is a sequel of the Handbook of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare. The first volume of the Handbook is dedicated to present advances and applications of AI methodologies in several specific areas, i.e., signal, image, and video processing as well as information and data analytics. In this second volume of the Handbook, general practicality challenges and future prospects of AI methodologies pertaining to healthcare and related domains are presented in Part 1 and Part 2, respectively.

It is envisaged that the selected studies will providereaders a general perspective on the issues, challenges, and opportunities in designing, developing, and implementing AI-based tools and solutions in the healthcare sector, bringing benefits to transform and advance health and well-being development of humans..

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have transformed many standard and conventional methods in undertaking health and well-being issues of humans.  AL/ML-based systems and tools play a critical role in this digital and big data era to address a variety of medical and healthcare problems, improving treatments and quality of care for patients. 

This edition on AI and ML for healthcare consists of two volumes.  The first presents selected AI and ML studies on medical imaging and healthcare data analytics, while the second unveils emerging methodologies and trends in AI and ML for delivering better medical treatments and healthcare services in the future.

In this first volume, progresses in AI and ML technologies for medical image, video, and signal processing as well as health information and data analytics are presented.  These selected studies offer readers theoretical and practical knowledge and ideas pertaining to recent advances in AI and ML for effective and efficient image and data analytics, leading to state-of-the-art AI and ML technologies for advancing the healthcare sector.

In line with advances in digital and computing systems, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies have transformed many aspects of medical and healthcare services, delivering tangible benefits to patents and the general public. This book is a sequel of the edition on “Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Healthcare”. The first volume is focused on utilization of AI and ML for image and data analytics in the medical and healthcare domains. In this second volume, emerging methodologies and future trends in AI and ML for advancing medical treatments and healthcare services are presented. The selected studies in this book provide readers a glimpse on current progresses in AI and ML for undertaking a variety of healthcare-related tasks. The advances in AI and ML technologies for future healthcare are also discussed, shedding light on the potential of AI and ML to realize the next-generation medical treatments and healthcare services for the betterment of our global society.
