Intelligent and Adaptive Systems in Medicine

Informationen zum Autor Olivier C. L. Haas! Keith J. Burnham Klappentext This book clearly and concisely explains a range of adaptive and intelligent systems! highlighting their benefits and limitations with realistic medical examples. It illustrates how these systems can be used in all stages of medical treatment. Each chapter presents a family of an intelligent and adaptive system! explains the techniques and algorithms behind these systems! and explores how to solve medical and biomedical problems using intelligent and adaptive systems. The book focuses on the tools of fuzzy logic! artificial neural networks! neuro-fuzzy modeling! adaptive and predictive control! systems and statistical modeling! and image processing. Zusammenfassung Intelligent and adaptive techniques are used in various stages of medical treatment, from the initial diagnosis to planning delivery and follow-up therapy. Focusing on this area of interest, this book explains a range of adaptive and intelligent systems, highlighting their benefits and limitations with realistic medical examples.
