Health care is a traditional field of application of Artificial Intelligence methods. Due to its complexity and high impact in society, many health-care related problems still need to be studied, modelled and solved from an AI perspective. Now it is the right moment to stress the applicability of AI methods in this field, because we have now the computational power and enough data to achieve goals that bring AI closer to the users (patients and doctors). This special issue is focused on presenting new techniques, challenges and solutions using data mining, machine learning and decision support models.
Topics of interest are the following ones:
Papers should not have been submitted or published elsewhere but they could be extended or refined versions of conference papers with significant new, original material and they are expected to differ from the conference version by at least 30% across all sections. Submissions of extended versions of papers accepted at the 23rd International Conference of the Catalan Association for Artificial Intelligence (CCIA2020) are especially welcome. All papers will be refereed according to the guidelines of the journal (http://www.worldscinet.com/ijait/mkt/guidelines.shtml).
Submissions should be made in camera-ready form, following the journal instructions (http://www.worldscientific.com/sda/1037/ws-ijait.pdf), through the on-line submission system of the IJAIT journal. You must submit to the special issue with name "DM, ML and DSS in Health Care".
