Abstract

This focus issue of Physiological Measurement follows the 38th Annual International Computing in Cardiology (CinC) Conference, hosted in Hangzhou, China in September 2011 by Zhejiang University. Each year, the NIH-sponsored PhysioNet resource (http://physionet.org/) runs an open competition lasting several months, aimed at encouraging the development of solutions to an unsolved or poorly solved problem in biomedicine, in most cases making use of relevant clinical and experimental data provided freely by PhysioNet. Participants in these annual challenges discuss their diverse approaches to the Challenge problems during dedicated scientific sessions at CinC. The topics of these PhysioNet/CinC Challenges range from physiologic signal processing and analysis to forecasting and modelling clinically important events and processes.
