AIAB 2012 - 2nd Workshop on Artificial Intelligence Applications in Biomedicine (AIAB 2012)

2nd Workshop on Artificial Intelligence Applications in Biomedicine
(AIAB 2012)
to be held in conjunction with the
8th IFIP Conference on Artificial Intelligence Applications &
Innovations (AIAI 2012)
Halkidiki, Greece, September 27-30, 2012

Workshop Theme:

Recent technological advances in computer science and biomedicine
facilitated the development of complex biomedical systems including
sophisticated medical imaging, signal processing systems and computer
based decision support tools, assisting diagnosis for better delivery
of health care services. Meanwhile, applications of Machine Learning,
Neural Computing, Expert Systems, Fuzzy Logic and Evolutionary
Computing in biomedicine are continuously emerging. Therefore AI tools
and techniques are a vital part of modern computer based systems that
handle medical data. The aim of this workshop is to serve as a forum
for the presentation of new and ongoing work and the exchange of ideas
between researchers interested in the application of AI in any aspect
of biomedicine and electronic healthcare.
The subject areas of the workshop include, but are not limited to, the
following:
* Clinical decision support systems
* Medical imaging
* Medical signal processing
* Medical knowledge engineering
* Knowledge-based and agent-based systems
* Medical text analysis
* Computational intelligence in bio- and clinical medicine
* Data mining on medical data and records
* Intelligent medical information systems
* Clinical expert systems
* Modelling and simulation of medical processes
* Drug discovery
* Intelligent analysis of genomic and proteomic data
* Personalised medicine
* Intelligent devices and instruments
* Automated reasoning and metareasoning in medicine
* AI in medical education
