Applied Computing in Medicine and Health _is a comprehensive
presentation of on-going investigations into current applied computing
challenges and advances, with a focus on a particular class of
applications, primarily artificial intelligence methods and techniques
in medicine and health.
Applied computing is the use of practical computer science knowledge
to enable use of the latest technology and techniques in a variety of
different fields ranging from business to scientific research. One of
the most important and relevant areas in applied computing is the use
of artificial intelligence (AI) in health and medicine. Artificial
intelligence in health and medicine (AIHM) is assuming the challenge
of creating and distributing tools that can support medical doctors
and specialists in new endeavors. The material included covers a wide
variety of interdisciplinary perspectives concerning the theory and
practice of applied computing in medicine, human biology, and health
care.
Particular attention is given to AI-based clinical decision-making,
medical knowledge engineering, knowledge-based systems in medical
education and research, intelligent medical information systems,
intelligent databases, intelligent devices and instruments, medical AI
tools, reasoning and metareasoning in medicine, and methodological,
philosophical, ethical, and intelligent medical data analysis.
* Discusses applications of artificial intelligence in medical data
analysis and classifications
* Provides an overview of mobile health and telemedicine with
specific examples and case studies
* Explains how behavioral intervention technologies use smart phones
to support a patient centered approach
* Covers the design and implementation of medical decision support
systems in clinical practice using an applied case study approach
