The applications and challenges of machine learning and artificial intelligence in the internet of things for healthcare applications are comprehensively covered in this book. Rapid developments in hardware, software and communication technologies have facilitated the emergence of internet-connected sensory devices that provide observations and data measurements from the physical world. The technology of internet-connected devices, referred to as the internet of things (IoT), continues to extend the current internet by providing connectivity and interactions between the physical and cyber worlds. The IoT is undoubtedly transforming the healthcare industry by redefining the space of devices and interaction of people in delivering healthcare solutions, resulting in applications that benefit patients, families, physicians, hospitals and insurance companies. The use of remote monitoring in the healthcare sector possible with IoT-enabled devices has the potential to keep patients safe and healthy, and empowers doctors to provide superlative care, thereby increasing patients’ engagement and satisfaction as a result of their interactions with doctors becoming easier and more efficient. Furthermore, remote monitoring of patients’ health helps reduce the length of hospital stays and prevents readmissions, in addition to having a major impact on reducing healthcare costs significantly and improving treatment outcomes.

In addition to increasing volume, the IoT generates big data characterized by its velocity in terms of time and location dependency, with a variety of multiple modalities and varying data quality. Intelligent processing and analysis of this big data are the keys to developing smart IoT applications, thereby making space for machine learning (ML) applications. Due to its computational tools that can substitute for human intelligence in the performance of certain tasks, artificial intelligence (AI) makes it possible for machines to learn from experience, adjust to new inputs and perform human-like tasks. Since IoT platforms provide an interface to gather the data from various devices, they can easily be deployed into AI/ML systems. The value of AI in this context is its ability to quickly mesh insights from data and automatically identify patterns and detect anomalies in the data that smart sensors and devices generate — information such as temperature, pressure, humidity, air quality, vibration and sound — that can be really helpful.

Our intent in publishing this book was to comprehensively discuss all of the applications and challenges of using ML and AI in the IoT for healthcare applications that will benefit research scholars working in this domain. Therefore, the 17 chapters of the book briefly discussed below present IoT concepts, frameworks and ideas on biomedical data analytics and information retrieval from the different biomedical domains. The editorial advisory board and expert reviewers have ensured the high caliber of the chapters through careful refereeing of the submitted papers. For the purpose of coherence, we have organized the chapters with respect to similarity of topics addressed, ranging from issues pertaining to the IoT for biomedical engineering and health informatics to computational intelligence for medical image processing and biomedical natural language processing.

 • In Chapter 1, “Internet of Medical Things – State of the Art,” Dr. Kishor Joshi and Dr. Ruchi Mehrotra present the latest technological advancements in the on-body segment of consumer health wearables. Since the traditional approach in healthcare is a more personalized touch-based system, it is not replaceable for diagnosis. Older, chronically ill patients need remote monitoring and medial management services that ensure that nurses or local healthcare assistants connect to doctors in urban or super-specialty fields for better services. This chapter indicates there is already a steep rise in internet of medical things (IoMT) products, but there is still huge potential for growth in the IoMT industry.

 • In Chapter 16, “A Comparative Analysis of Implementation Framework for Masked Face Detection,” Pranjali Singh, Amitesh Garg and Amritpal Singh discuss quick and accurate approaches for the difficult task of face recognition resulting from certain facial features being hidden by the masks used during the current pandemic. This study uses deep learning-related techniques to resolve the issues of detecting facial features hidden by a mask. Another method of face mask detection is through TensorFlow, YOLOv5, SSDMNV2, SVMs, OpenCV, and Keras. The first step is to discard the masked face region. Next, a pre-trained deep convolutional neural network (CNN) is applied to extract the best features from the obtained regions. Labeled image data is used to train the CNN model. With 98.7% accuracy, a face mask is identified by the proposed system. By using the SVM classifier, the dataset of RMFD had a testing accuracy of 99.64%, SMFD achieved a 99.49% testing accuracy, and LFW achieved 100% testing accuracy. The SSDMNV2 approach used in the study in this chapter yields a 92.64% accuracy score and a 93% F1 score.
