Machine Learning Applications in Public Health

Dear Colleagues,

We are organizing a Special Issue on Machine Learning Applications in Health Research in the Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. This is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes articles in the interdisciplinary area of environmental health sciences and public health. For detailed information on the journal, I refer you to https://www.mdpi.com/journal/ijerph.

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are transforming human lives with numerous real-world applications in medical imaging diagnosis, drug discovery, personalized medicine, and behavioral change. As the field is rapidly expanding, this Special Issue is a venue for communicating findings from high-quality and innovative research that applies machine learning techniques to improve human health and behaviors. Authors are invited to submit original manuscripts focusing on, but not limited to, tool development, measurement, evaluation, and technology-based solutions that address contemporary public health issues. The listed keywords can be used as a guide; other related topics will also be considered.
