Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful and disruptive area of computer science, with the potential to fundamentally transform the practice of medicine and the delivery of healthcare. In this review article, we outline recent breakthroughs in the application of AI in healthcare, describe a roadmap to building effective, reliable and safe AI systems, and discuss the possible future direction of AI augmented healthcare systems complex.

Advanced computing technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) has enabled the healthcare sectors to gain deeper insights from patient data. AI has the ability to successfully process and analyze large variety of data which is far beyond our capacity and has the potential to transform many aspects of patient care. This has led to an increasing demand of big data analytics.

AI is playing an important role in transforming both health and healthcare in and out of clinical setting. It is the future of public health, and acts as a bridge that connects healthcare delivery from a personal level to a system level. Thus, with the help of AI it is possible to support doctors, physicians, administrative staffs as well as customer service representatives by offering them proper assistance, automation of clinical documents, image analysis, disease diagnosis, patient medical history, virtual observation and patient outreach.

This course provides a unique platform formulate-disciplinary knowledge exploration, amalgamation and augmentation of engineering with clinical science.

This course helps the faculty to integrate AI and healthcare to cater the needs of students in pursuit of their urge for knowledge.

  • To provide an in-depth knowledge with practical applications through theoretical session blended with hands-on experiments.
  • To enhance the skills of participants to make them well equipped with the current state-of-the arttechnologies.
  • To provide thorough application oriented and problem-based learning with real life examples.
  • To equip the faculty to make utmost competent to capture the knowledge urge of modern-day students.

CONTENT: AI IN HEALTHCARE

About the course: Artificial intelligence is widely believed to play a transformational role in healthcare, both in primary as well as in the advanced level. By leveraging AI for clinical decision support, risk assessment, and early prediction, developing revolutionary approach along with data analysis healthcare innovation can be both cheaper and faster. Artificial intelligence could help mitigate the impacts of this severe deficit of qualified clinical staff by taking over some of the diagnostic duties typically allocated to humans.

This workshop envisions to bring on the state of the art in this rapidly moving research area to the students, researchers and industry partners and make impact in shaping of future direction.

3 Develop in students the understanding, skills, ethics and attitudes relevant to the Practices of Science by understanding the nature of scientific knowledge. Demonstrating the ways of thinking and doing. Relating science, technology, society and environment 4 develop in students an understanding that a small number of basic principles and core ideas can be applied to explain, analyse and solve problems in a variety of systems in the physical world.

4.Demonstrating Ways of Thinking and Doing (WOTD) The Ways of Thinking and Doing in Science illustrate a set of established procedures and practices associated with scientific inquiry to gather evidence and test ideas on how the natural world works.

There are three broad, iterative domains of scientific activity: investigating, evaluating and reasoning, and developing explanations and solutions

  • Posing questions and defining problems
  • Designing investigations
  • Conducting experiments and testing solutions 1.4 Analyzing and interpreting data
  • Communicating, evaluating and defending ideas with evidence
  • Making informed decisions and taking responsible actions
  • Using and developing models
  • Constructing explanations and designing solutions

Understanding the Nature of Scientific Knowledge (NOS)

Relating Science-Technology-Society-Environment (STSE) Science is not done completely independently of the other spheres of human activity. The relationships and connections to these areas are important as students learn science in context.

Applications of science often have ethical, social, economic, and environmental implications.

Applications of new scientific discoveries often drive technology
