Specifically, machine learning can generate insights to improve the discovery of new therapeutic tools, to support diagnostic decisions, to help in the rehabilitation process, just to name a few. Bringing together the advances of this wide and multidisciplinary subject, the aim of this workshop is to present recent advances in artificial intelligence techniques for healthcare applications. *TOPICS* Topics include but are not limited to the following: - Biomedical image analysis - Data analytics for healthcare - Automatic disease prediction - Automatic diagnosis support systems - Genomic and proteomic data analysis - Artificial intelligence for personalized medicine - Machine Learning as a tool to support medical diagnosis and decisions - Machine learning on handwriting and eye-tracking traces for diagnosis and rehabilitation - Decoding of neural signals for diagnosis assistance - Physiological signals processing - Gait analysis - Therapy selection - Brain-computer interface for healthcare - Biomechatronics for medicine - Neuromotor rehabilitation *INVITED SPEAKER * Nico Karssemeijer <http://lia.unicas.it/AIHA2020/invited.html>, Co-chair of DIAG <http://diagnijmegen.nl/index.php/Home> at Radboud UMC, Founder of ScreenPoint <https://screenpoint-medical.com/> Co-founder of Volpara <https://www.matakina.com/> Professor of Computer-Aided Diagnosis, Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands. *DATES * - Paper Submission: October 17, 2020 (*EXTENDED*) - Notification of Acceptance: November 10, 2020 - Camera-ready Submission: November 15, 2020 *SUBMISSIONS * Submissions must be formatted in accordance with the Springer's Computer Science Proceedings guidelines (Guidelines <https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines>).
