by Gordon D. Brown PhD; Kalyan S. Pasupathy PhD; Timothy B. Patrick PhD (Author)
As the reach and influence of technology grow, the world becomes increasingly connected. What happens in one system finance, manufacturing, research, infrastructure, supply chain, and many more can have a significant impact on the activities and outcomes in other systems

Editors: Wickramasinghe, Nilmini, Troshani, Indrit, Tan, Joseph (Eds.)
Introduces the foundations of consumer health informatics
Examines the field of consumer health informatics from a socio-technical perspective​
Offers guidance and materials to instructors, including PowerPoint slides, answers to chapter questions, and answers to mini-case questions

This book focuses on signal processing techniques used in computational health informatics. As computational health informatics is the interdisciplinary study of the design, development, adoption and application of information and technology-based innovations, specifically, computational techniques that are relevant in health care, the book covers a comprehensive and representative range of signal processing techniques used in biomedical applications, including: bio-signal origin and dynamics, sensors used for data acquisition, artefact and noise removal techniques, feature extraction techniques in the time, frequency, time–frequency and complexity domain, and image processing techniques in different image modalities.
