Books Published
"Timeless Avenues: Exploring the Future of AI" is a thought-provoking exploration into the transformative potential of artificial intelligence and its far-reaching impact on society. In this insightful collection of essays, the book delves into how AI is reshaping industries, challenging societal norms, and revolutionizing the way we live, work, and think.
From its role in healthcare innovations, autonomous transportation, and smart cities to its influence on education, creativity, and even human identity, this book covers the vast terrain of AI’s capabilities and its promise for the future. With a special focus on AI’s potential to tackle some of the world’s most pressing challenges—such as climate change, food security, and healthcare access—this book paints a picture of a future where AI is a driving force for global progress.
Yet, alongside the promise of innovation, the book does not shy away from exploring the ethical and social dilemmas that arise as AI becomes increasingly integrated into our daily lives. How do we navigate issues of privacy, equity, and the human-AI relationship? How can we ensure that AI is used responsibly and benefits all of humanity? These are the crucial questions that the book confronts as it examines the dual-edged nature of AI's growth.
The journey through this book is not just about understanding the mechanics of AI but about imagining the future it will create. With a balance of optimism and caution, "Timeless Avenues" is an invitation to reflect on how we, as a society, can shape a future where AI is used not just to augment human capabilities but to enhance the shared experience of life on Earth.
Whether you are a tech enthusiast, a business leader, or simply curious about the future, this book offers a compelling look at the infinite possibilities of AI, exploring how this technology will evolve and what it means for all of us.

Artificial Intelligence for Disease Diagnosis and Prognosis in Smart Healthcare
Artificial Intelligence (AI) in general and machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) in particular and related digital technologies are a couple of fledging paradigms that the next generation healthcare services are sprouting towards. These digital technologies can transform various aspects of healthcare, leveraging advances in computing and communication power. With a new spectrum of business opportunities, AI-powered healthcare services would improve the lives of patients, their families, and societies. However, the application of AI in the healthcare field requires special attention given the direct implication with human life and wellbeing. Rapid progress in AI leads to the possibility of exploiting healthcare data for designing practical tools for automated diagnosis of chronic diseases such as dementia and diabetes. This book highlights the current research trends in applying AI models in various disease diagnoses and prognoses to provide enhanced healthcare solutions. The primary audience of the book will be postgraduate students and researchers in the broad domain of healthcare technologies.
