The Society for Artificial Intelligence in MEdicine (AIME), was established in 1986 with two main goals:
- to foster fundamental and applied research in the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to medical care and medical research, and
- to provide a forum for reporting significant results achieved at biennial conferences.
A major activity of this society has been a series of international conferences, from Marseille (FR) in 1987 to Pavia (IT) in 2015, held biennially over the last 28 years.
