Riassunto

The European Society for Arti?cial Intelligence in Medicine (AIME) was - tablished in 1986 following a very successful workshop held in Pavia, Italy, the year before. The principal aims of AIME are to foster fundamental and applied research in the application of arti?cial intelligence (AI) techniques to medical care and medical research, and to provide a forum at biennial conferences for discussing any progress made. For this reason the main activity of the society wastheorganizationofaseriesofbiennialconferences,heldinMarseilles,France (1987), London, UK (1989), Maastricht, The Netherlands (1991), Munich, G- many (1993), Pavia, Italy (1995), Grenoble, France (1997), Aalborg, Denmark (1999),Cascais,Portugal(2001),Protaras,Cyprus(2003),Aberdeen,UK(2005), and Amsterdam, The Netherlands (2007). This volume contains the proceedings of AIME 2009, the 12th Conference on Articial Intelligence in Medicine, held in Verona, Italy, July 18-22, 2009. The AIME 2009 goalswereto present and consolidate the internationalstate of the art of AI in biomedical research from the perspectives of theory, meth- ology, and application. The conference included two invited lectures, full and short papers, tutorials, workshops,and a doctoral consortium. In the conference announcement, authors were solicited to submit originalcontributions regarding the developmentoftheory,techniques, andapplications ofAI in biomedicine, - cluding the exploitation of AI approaches to molecular medicine and biomedical informaticsandto healthcareorganizationalaspects. Authorsofpapersaddre- ing theory were requested to describe the properties of novel AI methodologies potentially useful for solving biomedical problems.

Dalla quarta di copertina

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine in Europe, AIME 2009, held in Verona, Italy in July 2009.

The 24 revised long papers and 36 revised short papers presented together with 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 140 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on agent-based systems, temporal data mining, machine learning and knowledge discovery, text mining, natural language processing and generation, ontologies, decision support systems, applications of AI-based image processing techniques, protocols and guidelines, as well as workflow systems.
