Summary
Artificial intelligence(AI), a term first coined by John McCarthy in the 1950s, is best thought of as the design of intelligent agents that can recognize and process stimuli to make decisions, similar to humans. The use of AI and artificial neural networks(ANNs) in medicine has been widely adopted to improve the efficiency of diagnostic medicine, and these include ANN-based analysis of electrocardiograms, electroencephalograms, radiographs, and automated computerized systems based on ANNs for detection of cancer data.
