The rapid and continuous growth in the amount of available medical information and the variety of multimodal content has created demand for a fast and reliable technology capable of processing data and delivering results in a user-friendly manner, whenever and wherever the information is needed. Multimodal acquisition systems, AI-powered applications, and biocybernetic support for medical procedures, physiotherapy and prevention have opened up exciting new avenues in terms of optimizing the healthcare system for the benefit of patients. This book presents a comprehensive study on the latest advances in medical data science and gathers carefully selected articles written by respected experts on information technology. Pursuing an interdisciplinary approach and addressing both theoretical and applied aspects, it chiefly focuses on: 

Artificial Intelligence

Sound and Motion in Physiotherapy and Physioprevention

Medical Data Analysis

This book presents a comprehensive study in the field of advances in medical data science and contains carefully selected articles contributed by experts of information technology. Continuous growth of the amount of medical information and the variety of multimodal content necessitates the demand for a fast and reliable technology able to process data and deliver results in a user-friendly manner at the time and place the information is needed.

Computational approaches for understanding human complexity, AI-powered applications in image and signal processing, bioinformatics, sound and motion as activity stimulus, joint activities in biomedical engineering and physiotherapy, disorder in children, selected comparative studies give new meaning to optimization of the functional requirements of the healthcare system for the benefit of the patients. It is an interdisciplinary collection of papers that have both theoretical and applied dimensions. It includes the following research areas:

Computational methods for understanding human complexity

Image and signal analysis

Multidimensional medical data analysis

Joint activities in biomedical engineering and physiotherapy

This book is a great reference tool for scientists who deal with problems of designing and implementing information processing tools employed in systems that assist the clinicians, radiologists, and physiotherapists in patient diagnosis and treatment. It also serves students in exploring innovations in quantitative medical data analysis, data mining, and artificial intelligence.

This book presents 10th International Conference Information Technologies in Biomedicine and shows research on Information Technologies in Medicine. The aim of this issue is to address the requirements for innovative technologies in computer-aided diagnosis and therapy and to indicate new areas of research, including the integration of multimodal data implemented in various fields of medical diagnostics. Fast and reliable data processing techniques able to deliver results in a user-friendly manner are discussed in three sections.

First, the AI and Image Analysis Applications in Medicine section features AI-driven studies for image processing, including comparisons of deep learning models for nuclear detection and segmentation, and optimal scanning settings for biological samples. It also covers the importance of multimodal imaging analysis in radiological studies and chronic wound treatment. Then, Biomedical Signal Processing section investigates the effect of music on brain activity through EEG signal analysis. Artificial intelligence-assisted speech diagnostics in children focuses on sound segmentation and speech disorder detection. The effect of electronic cigarettes is tested by comparing the ECG of smokers and the control group. Finally, Modeling, Simulation, and Therapy Support section presents technologies in patient care, including telemedicine for rehabilitation, analysis of neurodegenerative diseases, and therapeutic applications of music. Models for supporting chronic wound treatment and amblyopia therapy are described.

This book is a great reference tool for scientists who deal with problems of designing and implementing information processing tools employed in systems that assist the clinicians, radiologists, and physiotherapists in patient diagnosis and treatment. It also serves students in exploring innovations in quantitative medical data analysis, data mining, and artificial intelligence.

ITiB’2016 is the 5th Conference on Information Technologies in Biomedicine organized by the Department of Informatics & Medical Equipment of Silesian University of Technology every other year. The Conference is under the auspices of the Committee on Biocybernetics and Biomedical Engineering of the Polish Academy of Sciences. The meeting has become a recognized event that helps to bridge the gap between methodological achievements in engineering and clinical requirements in medical diagnosis, therapy, and rehabilitation. Mathematical information analysis, computer applications together with medical equipment and instruments have become standard tools underpinning the current rapid progress with developing Computational Intelligence. Members of academic societies of technical and medical background present their research results and clinical implementations.
