Current trends in artificial intelligence in reproductive endocrinology

Artificial Intelligence, a tool that integrates computer science and machine learning to mimic human decision-making processes, is transforming the world and changing the way we live. Recently, the healthcare industry has gradually adopted artificial intelligence in many applications and obtained some degree of success. In this review, we summarize the current applications of artificial intelligence in Reproductive Endocrinology, in both laboratory and clinical settings.

Artificial Intelligence has been used to select the embryos with high implantation potential, proper ploidy status, to predict later embryo development, and to increase pregnancy and live birth rates. Some studies also suggested that artificial intelligence can help improve infertility diagnosis and patient management. Recently, it has been demonstrated that artificial intelligence also plays a role in effective laboratory quality control and performance.

In this review, we discuss various applications of artificial intelligence in different areas of reproductive medicine. We summarize the current findings with their potentials and limitations, and also discuss the future direction for research and clinical applications.
