Hye‐Jin Kim, Eun Jeong Gong, Chang Seok Bang
Abstract
The era of big data has led to the necessity of artificial intelligence models to effectively handle the vast amount of clinical data available. These data have become indispensable resources for machine learning. Among the artificial intelligence models, deep learning has gained prominence and is widely used for analyzing unstructured data. Despite the recent advancement in deep learning, traditional machine learning models still hold significant potential for enhancing healthcare efficiency, especially for structured data. In the field of medicine, machine learning models have been applied to predict diagnoses and prognoses for various diseases. However, the adoption of machine learning models in gastroenterology has been relatively limited compared to traditional statistical models or deep learning approaches. This narrative review provides an overview of the current status of machine learning adoption in gastroenterology and discusses future directions. Additionally, it briefly summarizes recent advances in large language models.
