Medical images are at the base of many routine clinical decisions and their influence continues to increase in many fields of medicine. Since the last decade, computers have become an invaluable tool for supporting medical image acquisition, processing, organization and analysis. Biomedical Image Analysis and Machine Learning Technologies: Applications and Techniques provides a panorama of the current boundary between biomedical complexity coming from the medical image context and the multiple techniques which have been used for solving many of these problems. This innovative publication serves as a leading industry reference as well as a source of creative ideas for applications of medical issues.
The seven-volume set LNCS 12261, 12262, 12263, 12264, 12265, 12266, and 12267 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2020, held in Lima, Peru, in October 2020. The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 542 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 1809 submissions in a double-blind review process. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: Part I: machine learning methodologies Part II: image reconstruction; prediction and diagnosis; cross-domain methods and reconstruction; domain adaptation; machine learning applica...
This book has a complete set of applications of artificial neural networks that allow the reader to gain experience about the new systems for implementing and developing artificial intelligence (AI) methods, which can run in several digital systems. On the other hand, the book shows the newest algorithms of artificial intelligence that provide a wide spectrum of research areas in which AI can be deployed. There are a lot of books that address AI applications. However, this book shows the newest applications reached according with the technological changes that are presented nowadays. Those changes drastically appear in digital systems or other parallel areas that allow to improve the performance of AI algorithms. Hence, sometimes, the AI algorithms have to be redesigned in order to run in microcontrollers or FPGAs. The topics covered generate a structured book, so it could be used as a textbook, but it is designed to be accessible to a wide audience interested in AI.
Biometrics provide quantitative representations of human features, physiological and behavioral. This book is a compilation of biometric technologies developed by various research groups in Tecnologico de Monterrey, Mexico. It provides a summary of biometric systems as a whole, explaining the principles behind physiological and behavioral biometrics and exploring different types of commercial and experimental technologies and current and future applications in the fields of security, military, criminology, healthcare education, business, and marketing. Examples of biometric systems using brain signals or electroencephalography (EEG) are given. Mobile and home EEG use in children’s natural ...
The two-volume set LNAI 12468 and 12469 constitutes the proceedings of the 19th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, MICAI 2020, held in Mexico City, Mexico, in October 2020.

The rise in living standards increases the expectation of people in almost every field. At the forefront is health. Over the past few centuries, there have been major developments in healthcare. Medical device technology and developments in artificial intelligence (AI) are among the most important ones. The improving technology and our ability to harness the technology effectively by means such as AI have led to unprecedented advances, resulting in early diagnosis of diseases. AI algorithms enable the fast and early evaluation of images from medical devices to maximize the benefits. While developments in the field of AI were quickly adapted to the field of health, in some cases this contribu...
The book focuses on developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and internet of things (IoT) integration for smart healthcare, with an emphasis on current methodologies and frameworks for the design, growth, implementation, and creative use of such convergence technologies to provide insight into smart healthcare service demands. Concepts like signal recognition, computation, internet of health stuff, and so forth and their applications are covered. Development in connectivity and intelligent networks allowing for social adoption of ambient intelligence is also included. Features: •Introduces Intelligent IoT as applicable to the key areas of smart healthcare. •Discusses computational in...
U.S. Customs agents worked heroically to stamp out drug smugglers during the 1970s and Andrew Tully, columnist and journalist, was on hand to write it all down. Taken from the closed files of the U.S. Customs Bureau, these good guys and bad guys stories are full of car chases, gun battles, and persistent and savvy agents who lassoed the criminals in the end. Tully's stories were collected when Nixon's drug war model was written into the stone of U.S. politics and practice -- a model that focuses on enforcement of prohibition laws at home and interdiction of supply abroad. As we know, despite the war, after years of battling against narcotics, the levels of addiction, trafficking and violence continue to rise. But at the time, Tully himself fully supported this policy and believed that if the good guys were tough enough and the bad guys lured out of the shadows and punished enough, that the world would be saved from, in his words, "the Merchants of Death." The Secret War Against Dope, though not so secret today, is a historically important account written by an award winning journalist of his day.
