Abstract:
Up-to-date technologies make it possible to acquire a considerable amount of data, for a considerable period of time. It follows the possibility to strategically count on the necessary and useful elements to characterize from simple to very complex systems. Acquisition, even prolonged, and characterization of data from a certain source (object, component, system, etc.) make it possible to create a virtual copy of this source, namely Digital Twin (DT). When technology of DT meets smart algorithms of machine learning and artificial intelligence, the Intelligent DT (IDT) arises. DTs and IDTs are successfully adopted in electronics, mechanics, chemistry, but can they be applied for the entire human body so to realize a virtual human simulator (VHS)?.
