This special issue is a continuation of the existing partnership between EURASIP and the International Workshop of Biomedical Informatics with Optimization and Machine Learning (BOOM). Following the success of the 1st BOOM in July 2016 in New York City, United States, in conjunction with the 25th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI), the 2nd BOOM will be held in August 2017 in Melbourne, Australia, in conjunction with the 26th IJCAI. A selected number of both methodology-driven and application-driven papers will be published, covering a broad spectrum of topics.
