This book presents an original combination of three well-known methodological approaches for nonlinear data analysis: recurrence, networks, and fuzzy logic.After basic concepts of these three approaches are introduced, this book presents recently developed methods known as fuzzy recurrence plots and fuzzy recurrence networks.  Computer programs written in MATLAB, which implement the basic algorithms, are included to facilitate the understanding of the developed ideas. Several applications of these techniques to biomedical problems, ranging from cancer and neurodegenerative disease to depression, are illustrated to show the potential of fuzzy recurrence methods.This book opens a new door to theorists in complex systems science as well as specialists in medicine, biology, engineering, physics, computer science, geosciences, and social economics to address issues in experimental nonlinear signal and data processing.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become pervasive in most areas of research and applications.  While computation can significantly reduce mental efforts for complex problem solving, effective computer algorithms allow continuous improvement of AI tools to handle complexity—in both time and memory requirements—for machine learning in large datasets.  Meanwhile, data science is an evolving scientific discipline that strives to overcome the hindrance of traditional skills that are too limited to enable scientific discovery when leveraging research outcomes. Solutions to many problems in medicine and life science, which cannot be answered by these conventional approaches, are urgently needed for society.This edited book attempts to report recent advances in the complementary domains of AI, computation, and data science with applications in medicine and life science. The benefits to the reader are manifold as researchers from similar or different fields can be aware of advanced developments and novel applications that can be useful for either immediate implementations or future scientific pursuit.Features:Considers recent advances in AI, computation, and data science for solving complex problems in medicine, physiology, biology, chemistry, and biochemistryProvides recent developments in three evolving key areas and their complementary combinations: AI, computation, and data scienceReports on applications in medicine and physiology, including cancer, neuroscience, and digital pathologyExamines applications in life science, including systems biology, biochemistry, and even food technologyThis unique book, representing research from a team of international contributors, has not only real utility in academia for those in the medical and life sciences communities, but also a much wider readership from industry, science, and other areas of technology and education.

This book explores the role of artificial intelligence in healthcare, focusing on cranio-maxillofacial trauma, oral health, and systemic disease. Part I establishes the foundations with core traditional machine learning and deep learning methods, imaging pipelines from classical features to CNNs and vision transformers, data augmentation, explainable AI, and sequential data approaches including RNNs, LSTMs, transformers, fuzzy recurrence plots, and scalable recurrence graph networks.Parts II–IV highlight clinical applications. In facial trauma, chapters cover injury patterns and AI diagnostics as well as text-based mortality prediction and mandible network analysis. Surgical planning and simulation are addressed through 3D reconstruction, patient-specific implant design, outcome prediction, and workflow integration, with real-world examples in orthognathic surgery and fibula free flap reconstruction. Postoperative infection risk prediction is presented through multimodal monitoring. Oral health applications include AI for caries and periodontal disease, pediatric imaging enhanced by vision-language models, and cancer screening for early detection, biomarker discovery, and precision medicine. Oral–systemic links, including diabetes and cardiovascular disease, are analyzed using tensor models and recurrence-based methods.Part V integrates trauma, oral health, and systemic conditions, and concludes with ethical, legal, and policy considerations, as well as future directions in federated learning, digital twins, and global health equity.

With an emphasis on applications of computational models for solving modern challenging problems in biomedical and life sciences, this book aims to bring collections of articles from biologists, medical/biomedical and health science researchers together with computational scientists to focus on problems at the frontier of biomedical and life sciences. The goals of this book are to build interactions of scientists across several disciplines and to help industrial users apply advanced computational techniques for solving practical biomedical and life science problems. This book is for users in the fields of biomedical and life sciences who wish to keep abreast with the latest techniques in signal and image analysis. The book presents a detailed description to each of the applications. It can be used by those both at graduate and specialist levels.
