Affective Computing in Healthcare. Applications based on biosignals and artificial intelligence (en Inglés) - M. Murugappan

Healthcare is one of the most promising applications of affective computing, where advances using biomedical signals have grown rapidly. This comprehensive book begins with an introduction to affective computing and affective computing models, artificial intelligence, probability theory, and statistical learning. It discusses topics such as noise elimination and baseline wandering effects of biomedical signals, and then proceeds to review biomedical signal acquisition and pre-processing. In this book, biomedical signals in affective states are discussed as well as artificial intelligence techniques used to classify biomedical signals, such as artificial neural networks and support vector machines. A discussion of affective computing applications in neurodegenerative diseases and neurological disorders concludes the book. Recent research is discussed alongside future challenges in these areas.
