Machine Learning in Cardiovascular Medicine addresses the ever-expanding applications of artificial intelligence (AI), specifically machine learning (ML), in healthcare and within cardiovascular medicine. The book focuses on emphasizing ML for biomedical applications and provides a comprehensive summary of the past and present of AI, basics of ML, and clinical applications of ML within cardiovascular medicine for predictive analytics and precision medicine. It helps readers understand how ML works along with its limitations and strengths, such that they can could harness its computational power to streamline workflow and improve patient care. It is suitable for both clinicians and engineers; providing a template for clinicians to understand areas of application of machine learning within cardiovascular research; and assist computer scientists and engineers in evaluating current and future impact of machine learning on cardiovascular medicine.

His current work includes developing a neural network based algorithm for End-to-End echocardiogram segmentation and analysis, as well as developing a standalone software for simplified machine learning interface (SimplyClassify).
Dr. Lohendran Baskaran is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Research in Radiology at Weill Cornell Medicine, New York, and is a Consultant Cardiologist with the Department of Cardiology at the National Heart Centre Singapore. Dr. Baskaran obtained his MBBS and his BSc in Medical Physics from University College London and performed his initial medical training and MRCP in London. Currently, he is actively involved in research, teaching and clinical duties, where his research focuses on non-invasive cardiac imaging, specifically cardiac CT and Nuclear Cardiology. As an advocate for cardiac wellbeing, he fundraises for research and patients in need, and was co-chair of the inaugural NHCS Heart to Heart Gala. He is also a certified Exercise Specialist with accreditation from the American College of Sports Medicine.
Dimitri Metaxas became an assistant professor in the Computer and Information Science Department at the University of Pennsylvania and director of the VAST Lab. From January 1998 to September 2001 he was a tenured associate professor in the same department. In September 2001, he moved to Rutgers as a professor in the Department of Computer Science at Rutgers University. Since July 2007, Metaxas is a professor II (distinguished professor) and since 2013, he is the chair of the same department. Since 2001, he has founded and has been directing the Center for Computational Biomedicine, Imaging and Modeling (CBIM).
