Abstract

In recent years, a lot of advances have been made in data analysis using Machine Learning techniques, and specifically using Deep Learners. Deep Learners have been performing particularly well for multimedia mining tasks such as object or face recognition and Natural Language Processing tasks such as speech recognition and voice commands. This opens up a lot of new possibilities for medical applications. Deep Learners can be used for medical imaging, behavioral health analytics, pervasive sensing, translational bioinformatics or predictive diagnosis. This chapter provides an introduction in Deep Learning for health informatics and presents some of its applications for eHealth.
