Abstract
Purpose: This review aims to explore the clinical and research applications of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL), in understanding, predicting, and managing obesity. It assesses the use of AI tools to identify obesity-related risk factors, predict outcomes, personalize treatments, and improve healthcare interventions for obesity. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed and Google Scholar, with keywords including “artificial intelligence”, “machine learning”, “deep learning”, “obesity”, “obesity management”, and related terms. Studies focusing on AI’s role in obesity research, management, and therapeutic interventions were reviewed, including observational studies, systematic reviews, and clinical applications. Results: This review identifies numerous AI-driven models, such as ML and DL, used in obesity prediction, patient stratification, and personalized management strategies. Applications of AI in obesity research include risk prediction, early detection, and individualization of treatment plans. AI has facilitated the development of predictive models utilizing various data sources, such as genetic, epigenetic, and clinical data. However, AI models vary in effectiveness, influenced by dataset type, research goals, and model interpretability. Performance metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score were evaluated to optimize model selection. Conclusions: AI offers promising advancements in obesity management, enabling more personalized and efficient care. While technology presents considerable potential, challenges such as data quality, ethical considerations, and technical requirements remain. Addressing these will be essential to fully harness AI’s potential in obesity research and treatment, supporting a shift toward precision healthcare.
