The ever increasing population of the world has put tremendous pressure on the healthcare sector to provide quality treatment and healthcare services. Now, more than ever, people are demanding smart healthcare services, applications, and wearables that will help them to lead better lives and prolong their lifespan. The healthcare sector has always been one of the greatest proponents of innovative technology, and Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are no exceptions. Just as AI and ML permeated rapidly into the business and e-commerce sectors, they also found numerous use cases within the healthcare industry. In fact, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning has come to play a pivotal role in the realm of healthcare – from improving the delivery system of healthcare services, cutting down costs, and handling patient data to the development of new treatment procedures and drugs, remote monitoring and so much more.
This need for a ‘better’ healthcare service is increasingly creating the scope for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications to enter the biomedical and healthcare world. Today, AI, ML, and deep learning are affecting every imaginable domain, and healthcare, too, doesn’t remain untouched. Also, the fact that the healthcare sector’s data burden is increasing by the minute (owing to the ever-growing population and higher incidence of diseases) is making it all the more essential to incorporate Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning into its canvas. With Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, there are endless possibilities. Through its cutting-edge applications, AI and ML are helping transform the healthcare industry for the better.
This Special issue covers the advances and application of artificial intelligence and machine learning in biomedical and healthcare. It will discuss integrating the principles of computer science, life science, healthcare, medical and statistics incorporated into statistical models using existing data, discovering patterns in data to extract the information, and predicting the changes and diseases based on this data and models. This SI will cover the practical applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning for disease prognosis & management. Further, the role of artificial intelligence and machine learning will discuss with reference to diseases like diabetes mellitus, cancer, mycobacterium tuberculosis, Covid-19 and others. This SI will be the working examples on how different types of biomedical ad healthcare data can be used to develop models and predict diseases using machine learning and artificial intelligence. This SI will also touch upon precision medicine, personalized medicine, and transfer learning, with the real examples. Further, it will also discuss the use of machine learning and artificial intelligence for visualization, prediction, detection, and diagnosis of Disease. This SI will be a valuable source of information for programmers, healthcare professionals, and researchers interested in understanding the applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning in biomedical and healthcare informatics.
