Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The field of medical diagnosis is rapidly evolving with the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics. These advanced methods, combined with diverse medical data—such as electronic health records, medical imaging, clinical tests, and sensor-based measurements—offer new opportunities for improving e-diagnosis. However, challenges like data noise, missing values, and class imbalances need to be addressed to ensure effective and reliable AI-driven diagnostics.

AI plays a crucial role in enhancing healthcare outcomes through accurate, timely diagnoses that support effective treatment planning and patient management. By leveraging AI and big data, advancements in early disease detection, personalized treatment, and proactive interventions are possible, potentially improving patient care, reducing costs, and saving lives.

This Special Issue will explore the challenges and opportunities in AI and big data analytics for medical e-diagnosis, with a focus on the role of sensors in providing real-time data to improve diagnostic accuracy. We invite researchers worldwide to contribute their work, aiming to address current challenges and unlock the full potential of AI-enhanced e-diagnosis. The high-quality submissions we have received underscore a strong international interest in advancing this crucial area of healthcare.
