ABSTRACT
In recent years, there has been a significant growth in the development of machine learning algorithms towards better experience in patient care. In this paper, a contemporary survey on the deep learning and machine learning techniques used in multimodal signal processing for biomedical applications is presented. Specifically, an overview of the preprocessing approaches and the algorithms proposed for five major biomedical applications are presented, namely detection of cardiovascular diseases, retinal disease detection, stress detection, cancer detection and COVID-19 detection. In each case, processing on each multimodal data type, such as an image or a text is discussed in detail. A list of various publicly available datasets for each of these applications is also presented. © 2023 IEEE.
