IEEE-EMBS BHI Conference 2022

On September 27th, 2022, Björn Eskofier, Martin Vossiek, Anne Koelewijn and Daniel Krauss organised a workshop called „1st Intl. Symposium on Understanding Inner States of Humans using Measurements of ‚Invisibles‘ – ‚Empatho-Kineasthetic‘ Sensing“ at the IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI) in Ioannia, Greece.

The symposium focused on new ideas, sensors and technologies such as radar, radio, laser and camera sensors to improve the diagnosis process and the daily lives of patients as well as physicians. It brought together technical experts in biomedical signal processing and physicians specialising in patient care. The symposium provided a forum for academia, clinicians, industry, health insurance, and governing bodies to exchange ideas and to promote collaboration.

The conference took place in Ioannina Greece, from 27-30 September, 2022. It provided a unique forum to showcase enabling technologies of devices and sensors, hardware and software systems, predictive models, databases, and big data analytics and machine learning that optimize the acquisition, transmission, processing, monitoring, storage, retrieval, analysis, visualization and interpretation of vast volumes of multi-modal biomedical data, as well as related social, behavior, environmental, and geographical data. It also demonstrated the deployment of BHI informatics solutions that integrate key technologies including machine learning, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), mHealth, e-Health, human computer interface, telemedicine, bioinformatics, sensors, imaging, and public health monitoring, to achieve patient-centric and outcome-driven effective health care.
