Call for Papers
The traditional healthcare industry is undergoing a major paradigm shift due
to the rapid advances, developments, and deployments of wearable, mobile,
digital, machine learning, and big data technologies. These technologies
have brought tremendous benefits and opportunities to the diagnosis,
prognosis, treatment, and prevention of human diseases for a better quality
of life, but meanwhile also present unprecedented performance and security
challenges in the entire process of data collection, processing, analysis,
synthesis, and visualization.
The 2017 International Conference on Healthcare Science and Engineering
(Healthcare¹17) provides a forum for researchers, engineers, and
practitioners from academia, industry and government in computer science,
data analytics, medical informatics, biomedical engineering, and other
engineering disciplines involving healthcare, as well as healthcare
professionals, to share and exchange their knowledge and progresses of
current research issues, technologies, and ideas in healthcare. This forum
is focused on recent advances and developments of wearable, mobile, digital,
machine learning, and big data technologies in the broad healthcare domain.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
·      Big data analytics for healthcare
·      Machine learning techniques for healthcare
·      Security, confidentiality, and privacy in eHealth and mHealth
·      Visualization techniques for healthcare
·      eHealth virtual communities and collaborative techniques
