An international group of scientists and clinicians is calling on health systems to fight COVID-19 and future public health crises by integrating AI and robotics within a care-delivery framework emphasizing telemedicine.

Neuroradiologist Sonu Bhaskar, MD, PhD, of Australia and colleagues outline their vision in a paper published this month in Frontiers in Public Health.

The authors make their case by breaking it into three sections:

1. AI-assisted telemedicine. Bhaskar and colleagues note that, in a telemedicine framework, machine learning can help find optimal diagnostic protocols based on large datasets of affected populations.

“Unlike traditional statistical hypothesis testing, data-driven computational approaches can test for synergistic variable combinations and redundant feature elimination enabling more effective diagnosis under the specific constraints of telemedicine,”...
