Abstract
Healthcare system in research in recent years has been in the frontline of research, and researchers has been tried to create several artificial intelligence (AI) models to solving the difficulties associated with medical diagnosis, prediction and forecast of medical data. Among such AI methods are Swarm Intelligence (SI) and Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) algorithms. These algorithms have brought rapid development in data analytics techniques driven by growth in healthcare data availability. The SI and EA encompass collective behavioral study in decentralized systems that involves computations for solving complex problems. SI provides derivative-free optimization, flexible, robust and easy to implement at low cost. SI with EAs are effective global optimization techniques that are very useful in medical system for features selections. There are research innovations on SI and EA techniques and applications in healthcare domain. Therefore, this paper presents an overview of SI and EA as applied to problems in the healthcare systems to processing the healthcare data with practical applications and techniques. The applications of both SI and EA in healthcare systems has occasioned in processing healthcare data were discussed. The results shown that the use of SI and EA applications and techniques are limited compared to similar artificial intelligence algorithms even with the numerous inherent benefits that lies in the optimization potentials of combined them. Since processing healthcare data is significant to diagnosis, treatments, medication, screening and ultimately reduce mortality rate, there is a need to extend research innovations in the area of SI and EA techniques in processing healthcare data.
