Artificial Intelligence appeared in the 1950s as a term to designate a set of novel methods and philosophical attitudes toward problem solving. In the 1980s it had a serious falling in popularity, which was the period of methodologies such as Intellgent Control, fuzzy systems, and neural networks, nowadays composing computational intelligence, these are numerical.based methodolgies, so far artifiical intelligence was mainly worried about symbolic-based methodologies.
Some says that artificial intelligence possesses too much Is, this is to highlight the problems faced by the same in the past. There are several definitions. Russel and Norvig (2010) categorizes them into: thinking humanly, thinking rationally, acting humanly, or acting rationally. Computational intelligence, a competitor for attention, is placed into acting rationally.
Computer is without a doubt the revolution of the millennium. Medicine is not different from the other sciences, it is nowadays somehow slave of equipaments, some doctors will not move even an eye without the proper machinary. All these systems cannot be run and controlled just based on linear models or linearizations as it is done often by mathematician. Computer scientists and engineers are more practical and they have certainly been taking advantage of the changes so far.
According to Fieschi (1990), artificial intelligence, a strange phrase in which the two words taken
separately conjure up opposite meanings. Intelligence seems to us to be intimately associated with human behaviour. The idea of 'artificial', on the other hand, conjures up the idea of objects characteristically not natural but 'man-made'. To call 'artificial' a prime component of human nature seems a paradox. This term is badly chosen, particularly as the aim of artificial intelligence systems is to represent behaviour comparable to human behaviour. The same observation was done on Poole et al (1998). Further, Fieschi (1990) still pinpoint, artificial intelligence in medicine is going to take a very important place in the science of medical informatics.
In summary, artificial intelligence is changing, and it seems for better. Medicine is a field rich on tough problems, problems which solution could benefit several people. This field certainly will occupy the minds of several researches on the future. I am quite sure that computational intelligence will not be left behind, see for example Lam et al (2012).
