Abstract
Machine learning (ML) is a branch of artificial intelligence that combines computer science, statistics, and decision theory to learn complex patterns from voluminous data. In the last decade, accumulating evidence has shown the utility of ML for prediction, diagnosis, and classification of hypertension and heart failure (HF). In addition, ML-enabled image analysis has potential value in assessing cardiac structure and function in an accurate, scalable, and efficient way. Considering the high burden of hypertension and HF in China and worldwide, ML may help address these challenges from different aspects. Indeed, prior studies have shown that ML can enhance each stage of patient care, from research and development, to daily clinical practice and population health. Through reviewing the published literature, the aims of the current systemic review are to summarize the utilities of ML for the care of those with hypertension and HF.
