Artificial intelligence, AI, which finds patterns in complex biological data could eventually contribute to the development of individually tailored health care. Researchers at Linköping University, Sweden, have developed an AI-based method applicable to various medical and biological issues. Their models can for instance accurately estimate people’s chronological age and determine whether they have been smokers or not.
