Allam Hamdan - Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Business, Education and Healthcare

The series Studies in Computational Intelligence (SCI) publishes new developments and advances in the various areas of computational intelligencequickly and with a high quality. The intent is to cover the theory, applications, and design methods of computational intelligence, as embedded in the fields of engineering, computer science, physics and life sciences, as well as the methodologies behind them. The series contains monographs, lecture notes and edited volumes in computational intelligence spanning the areas of neural networks, connectionist systems, genetic algorithms, evolutionary computation, artificial intelligence, cellular automata, self-organizing systems, soft computing, fuzzy systems, and hybrid intelligent systems. Of particular value to both the contributors and the readership are the short publication timeframe and the world-wide distribution, which enable both wide and rapid dissemination of research output.

Indexed by SCOPUS, DBLP, WTI Frankfurt eG, zbMATH, SCImago.

All books published in the series are submitted for consideration in Web of Science.

It is with great pride and pleasure we introduce the book Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Business, Education and Healthcare edited by Prof. Allam Hamdan, dean of the College of Business Administration at Ahlia University, Bahrain, and his colleagues.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is defined in the literature as the ability of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings. The term is frequently applied to the project of developing systems endowed with the intellectual processes characteristic of humans, such as the ability to reason, discover meaning, generalize, or learn from past experience.

Work on artificial intelligence started around the middle of the last century. The current pace of research and development of new system applications has increased at exponential rate with the high computing power available.

Artificial intelligent is playing a major role in our current and future life. Its implications on economy, health, education, and our way of life are still in its early stages. The next few years, its impact will revolutionize the way things are done now in all these areas.

This book with its four parts discusses many of the implications of artificial intelligence on the different aspects of business, education, and health care. Many researchers, from all parts of the world, shared their findings in this book. I believe this book will be a good addition to the active research and system development worldwide in this area.

Artificial intelligence is a breakthrough for various felids in life. Endless potential opportunities may be created through applying AI in business, health care, and education. It is undeniable that artificial intelligence provides a cheap and efficient tool to achieve tasks that consume time and money, where faster growth and success could be reached. Transforming into utilizing artificial intelligence needs careful inspection and forward thinking in the possible outcomes and reflections on humankind.

These chapters reflect quality research contributing theoretical and practical implications for those who wish to apply artificial intelligence within any business, healthcare, education sector, or even entrepreneurs who wish to blend entrepreneurship with artificial intelligence and other vital areas state the lease. We hope that this books contribution will be oft the academic level that even decision-makers in the various economic and executive levels will get to appreciate.
