This book discusses and evaluates AI and machine learning (ML) algorithms in dealing with challenges that are primarily related to public health. It also helps find ways in which we can measure possible consequences and societal impacts by taking the following factors into account: open public health issues and common AI solutions (with multiple case studies, such as TB and SARS: COVID-19), AI in sustainable health care, AI in precision medicine and data privacy issues. Public health requires special attention as it drives economy and education system. COVID-19 is an example—a truly infectious disease outbreak. The vision of WHO is to create public health services that can deal with abovementioned crucial challenges by focusing on the following elements: health protection, disease prevention and health promotion. For these issues, in the big data analytics era, AI and ML tools/techniques have potential to improve public health (e.g., existing healthcare solutions and wellness services). In other words, they have proved to be valuable tools not only to analyze/diagnose pathology but also to accelerate decision-making procedure especially when we consider resource-constrained regions.

Document Processing Using Machine Learning aims at presenting a handful of resources for students and researchers working in the document image analysis (DIA) domain using machine learning since it covers multiple document processing problems. Starting with an explanation of how Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays an important role in this domain, the book further discusses how different machine learning algorithms can be applied for classification/recognition and clustering problems regardless the type of input data: images or text. In brief, the book offers comprehensive coverage of the most essential topics, including: · The role of AI for document image analysis · Optical character recognition · Machine learning algorithms for document analysis · Extreme learning machines and their applications · Mathematical foundation for Web text document analysis · Social media data analysis · Modalities for document dataset generation This book serves both undergraduate and graduate scholars in Computer Science/Information Technology/Electrical and Computer Engineering. Further, it is a great fit for early career research scientists and industrialists in the domain.
