<p class="Default" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:10.0pt">Deep learning is one of the most important revolutions in the field of artificial intelligence over the last decade. It has achieved great success in different tasks in
 computer vision, image processing, biomedical analysis and related fields. Researchers in deep and shallow machine learning including those working in computer vision, image processing, biomedical analysis and related fields when tied with experienced clinicians
 can play a significant role in understanding and working on complex medical data which ultimately improves patient care. To develop a novel deep or shallow machine learning algorithm specific to medical data is a challenge and need of the hour. Healthcare
 and biomedical sciences have become data-intensive fields, with a strong need for sophisticated data mining methods to extract the knowledge from the available information. Biomedical data contains several challenges in data analysis, including high dimensionality,
 class imbalance and low numbers of samples. Although the current research in this field has shown promising results, several research issues need to be explored as follows. There is a need to explore novel feature selection methods to improve predictive performance
 along with interpretation, and to explore large scale data in biomedical sciences.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">This special session aims to bring together the current research progress (from both academia and industry) on novel machine
 learning methods to address the challenges to biomedical complex data.  Special attention will be devoted to handle feature selection, class imbalance, and data fusion in biomedical and machine learning applications. It will attract medical experts who have
 access to interesting sources of data but lack the expertise in using machine learning techniques effectively.
