Synopsis
This Special Session is dedicated to the development of intelligent techniques with their underlying theory and applications in cancer research, including diagnosis, prognosis and patient management. Contributions to theory may include presentation or analysis of the properties of novel Artificial Intelligence, or other, methodologies potentially useful to solve clinical cancer problems. Papers on techniques should describe the development or extension of intelligent methods and their implementation, and discuss the assumptions and limitations of the proposed methods. Application papers should describe the implementation of the intelligent systems to solve significant clinical cancer problems, and should present sufficient information to allow evaluation of the practical benefits of the system.
