Artificial Intelligence for Computational Modeling of the Heart presents recent research developments towards streamlined and automatic estimation of the digital twin of a patient?s heart by combining computational modeling of heart physiology and artificial intelligence. The book first introduces the major aspects of multi-scale modeling of the heart, along with the compromises needed to achieve subject-specific simulations. Reader will then learn how AI technologies can unlock robust estimations of cardiac anatomy, obtain meta-models for real-time biophysical computations, and estimate model parameters from routine clinical data. Concepts are all illustrated through concrete clinical applications.

1. Introduction 2. Multi-scale Models of the Heart for Individualized Simulations 3. Learning Cardiac Anatomy: from Images to Heart Avatar 4. Data-Driven Reduction of Cardiac Models 5. Machine Learning Methods for Robust Parameter Estimation 6. Clinical Applications 7. Conclusion and Perspective

Dr. Tommaso Mansi obtained his undergraduate and M.Sc degrees in Image Processing, Computer Science, and Telecommunications Engineering at Telecom ParisTech, France, and Politecnico di Torino, Italy. Dr. Mansi obtained his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering at INRIA Sophia-Antipolis, Ecole des Mines de Paris, France in 2010. Since he joined Siemens Healthcare in 2010, Dr. Mansi has devoted his professional career to researching and developing key innovation for healthcare, specializing in medical image analysis, subject-specific computational modeling applications and artificial intelligence. In particular, Dr. Mansi has contributed to the development of core algorithms of many Siemens Healthineers applications. Dr. Mansi now leads a team of research scientists focusing in image-guided therapy and digital twin technologies, including deep learning, deep reinforcement learning, multi-modality medical image analytics, and patient-specific modeling of organ functions. Dr. Mansi and his team have received several awards, including the 2015 Edison Patent Award in the medical informatics category for the patent Valve Treatment Simulation from Medical Diagnostic Imaging Data, and young scientist awards at the international Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention conference for his work in computational modeling of the heart and image interpretation.
Dr. Tiziano Passerini obtained his M.Sc degree in Biomedical Engineering from Politecnico di Milano, Italy in 2005, and his Ph.D. in Mathematical Engineering from Politecnico di Milano, Italy in 2009.
