Deep Learning in Healthcare: An In-Depth Analysis (2302.10904v1)

Abstract: Deep learning (DL) along with never-ending advancements in computational processing and cloud technologies have bestowed us powerful analyzing tools and techniques in the past decade and enabled us to use and apply them in various fields of study. Health informatics is not an exception, and conversely, is the discipline that generates the most amount of data in today's era and can benefit from DL the most. Extracting features and finding complex patterns from a huge amount of raw data and transforming them into knowledge is a challenging task. Besides, various DL architectures have been proposed by researchers throughout the years to tackle different problems. In this paper, we provide a review of DL models and their broad application in bioinformatics and healthcare categorized by their architecture. In addition, we also go over some of the key challenges that still exist and can show up while conducting DL research.
