Systematic reviews in minutes to hours using artificial intelligence
Bakker, L.; Caganek, T.; Rooprai, A.; Hume, S.
Systematic reviews are used in academia, biotechnology, pharmaceutical companies and government to synthesise and appraise large numbers of publications. The current (largely manual) workflow takes an average of 9-18 months1, at a cost of $100,000+ per review2. We built a platform, ScholaraAI, that leverages artificial intelligence to cut this to < 0.1% of the time, without compromising quality. ScholaraAI facilitates end-to-end systematic reviews; search, screening, data extraction, and analysis. The workflow is transparent, and the researcher is in the loop. Our approach is compliant with the PRISMA and RAISE frameworks. Compared to a benchmarking set of published systematic reviews, ScholaraAIs sensitivity for correctly included studies is 100% {+/-} 0%, its specificity for correctly excluded studies is 90.8 {+/-} 8.6%, and its accuracy for data extraction is 98.0 {+/-} 3.5%. The time taken per review was 3.67 hours {+/-} 1.26. We used ScholaraAI to produce a novel, up-to-date systematic review and meta-analysis, which is presented here. ScholaraAI is free to try at app.scholara.ai.
