Artificial intelligence (AI) is the simulation of intelligent processes using computer systems. Specialised software for writing and training machine learning algorithms is developed by providing a system with large amounts of labelled training data, analysing the data for correlations and patterns, and using these patterns to make predictions about future states. For example, an image recognition tool can learn to identify and describe objects in images by reviewing millions of examples (eg. cancerous tissues in scans). AI programming focuses on three cognitive skills: learning, reasoning and self-correction.
This book is about the novel applications of AI in e-healthcare, It includes various real-time/offline applications and case studies showcasing modern AI tools & technologies. The main objective of this book is to help with effective use of AI by describing innovative case studies and finding the scope for improvement across healthcare services.
