The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and computational intelligence techniques has revolutionized biomedical signal processing by enabling more precise disease diagnostics and patient monitoring. However, single-source biomedical data often lack the necessary depth and context for accurate medical decision-making. Multimodal biomedical data fusion—which combines signals from various sources such as electrocardiograms (ECG), electroencephalograms (EEG), medical imaging (MRI, CT scans), genetic biomarkers, and wearable sensor data—has emerged as a powerful approach to enhance diagnostic accuracy and clinical insights. Advances in computational intelligence, including deep learning, machine learning, and probabilistic models, are driving innovation in this field. By integrating diverse data sources, AI-powered systems can provide more comprehensive assessments, reduce false positives, and support personalized medicine. This Research Topic aims to explore the latest developments in computational intelligence techniques for multimodal biomedical data fusion and their potential applications in next-generation healthcare systems.

Despite the increasing availability of diverse biomedical data, the challenge of effectively integrating multimodal signals remains a significant hurdle. Traditional analysis techniques often struggle with heterogeneous data structures, varying temporal resolutions, and noise inherent in biomedical signals. Moreover, ensuring interpretability and trust in AI-driven diagnostic models is crucial for clinical adoption. This Research Topic seeks to address these challenges by exploring novel computational intelligence methodologies for multimodal biomedical data fusion. We aim to investigate:

- Advanced machine learning and deep learning models for integrating multiple biomedical data types.
- Explainable AI (XAI) techniques to enhance transparency in medical decision-making.
- Real-time multimodal data processing for wearable health monitoring systems.
- Federated learning and privacy-preserving AI models for secure data fusion.
- AI-driven approaches for early disease detection, precision medicine, and personalized healthcare.
