Scientific peer review process can be harnessed by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

Posted on by Haptic

As the COVID-19 pandemic has swept the world, researchers have published hundreds of papers each week reporting their findings – many of which have not undergone a thorough peer review process to gauge their reliability. In some cases, poorly validated research has massively influenced public policy, as when a French team reported COVID patients were Read more about Scientific peer review process can be harnessed by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning[…]
