<p class="MsoNormal">Dear users of the Planet KR mailing list,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">I would like to draw your attention to the AIME 2022 conference, which targets AI-related work applied to healthcare – including knowledge representation and reasoning methods. See below for the call:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The AIME 2022 conference (<a href="https://aime22.aimedicine.info">https://aime22.aimedicine.info</a>) invites all interested researchers to submit original contributions regarding the development of theory, methods, systems, and applications
of Artificial Intelligence in biomedicine, including the application of AI approaches in biomedical informatics, healthcare organisation and molecular medicine. The AIME 2022 conference will be hosted **in person** by Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada
from June 14-17 2022. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">AIME 2022 will include invited speakers, long and short presentations, poster sessions, demos, tutorials, workshops and a doctoral consortium.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We kindly invite interested parties to submit a workshop or tutorial proposal (<a href="http://aime22.aimedicine.info/index.php/call-for-submissions/tutorials-workshops">http://aime22.aimedicine.info/index.php/call-for-submissions/tutorials-workshops</a>).
Furthermore, there will be opportunities for presenting software demos (<a href="http://aime22.aimedicine.info/index.php/call-for-submissions/demos">http://aime22.aimedicine.info/index.php/call-for-submissions/demos</a>).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">== Scope ===<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Contributions to theory and methods should present or analyze novel AI theories or methodologies for solving problems in the biomedical field. They may propose new theories and methods or extensions of existing ones. In both cases, the
work should demonstrate its utility for solving biomedical problems and highlight its contribution to the underlying theoretical basis. In addition, it should discuss assumptions, limitations and novelty with respect to the state of the art.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Contributions addressing systems and applications should describe the development, implementation or evaluation of innovative, AI-based tools and systems in the biomedical application domain. These papers should both link the work to underlying
theory, and either analyze the potential benefits to solve biomedical problems or present empirical evidence of benefits in clinical practice.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The scope of the conference includes the following areas:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">=== Clinical Relevance ===<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Since the healthcare domain is motivated by value creation for the patient, provider, and institution, this year a special focus will be given to demonstrating clinical relevance. Please write a subsection in the evaluation section that
describes the value created by your submitted work.<o:p></o:p></p>
