Title: A.I. in Biomedicine

Abstract: Artificial intelligence (A.I.) has been applied in several areas including military, medicine, science, engineering, economics, etc. This presentation briefly describes Biomedical Engineering Institute, Chiang Mai University. The research works conducting at Computational Intelligence (C.I.) Research Laboratory, Chiang Mai University, are also presented. The research works at C.I. Lab on that applied to biomedicine are particularly focused in this presentation. We successfully applied A.I./C.I. techniques in several real-world biomedical problems.
