Artificial Intelligence for Computational Modeling of the Heart. Questo articolo non è disponibile.Artificial Intelligence for Computational Modeling of the Heart

Artificial Intelligence for Computational Modeling of the Heart presents recent research developments towards streamlined and automatic estimation of the digital twin of a patient’s heart by combining computational modeling of heart physiology and artificial intelligence. The book first introduces the major aspects of multi-scale modeling of the heart, along with the compromises needed to achieve subject-specific simulations. Reader will then learn how AI technologies can unlock robust estimations of cardiac anatomy, obtain meta-models for real-time biophysical computations, and estimate model parameters from routine clinical data. Concepts are all illustrated through concrete clinical applications.

• Presents recent advances in computational modeling of heart function and artificial intelligence technologies for subject-specific applications
• Discusses AI-based technologies for robust anatomical modeling from medical images, data-driven reduction of multi-scale cardiac models, and estimations of physiological parameters from clinical data
• Illustrates the technology through concrete clinical applications and discusses potential impacts and next steps needed for clinical translation
