I'm currently exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and Ayurveda, particularly how AI is being used to enhance diagnostic accuracy and individualized treatment.
Given Ayurveda’s emphasis on personalized care — based on Prakriti (body constitution), dosha imbalances, and lifestyle factors — it seems like a natural fit for AI applications such as:
- Machine learning for Prakriti analysis
- Image recognition for tongue and face diagnostics
- Predictive models for dosha imbalance and disease risk
- NLP for mining classical Ayurvedic texts
- AI-driven recommendation systems for herbal treatments, diet, and lifestyle changes
I’m curious to know:
- Are there any existing tools, models, or platforms actively integrating AI with Ayurvedic diagnostics?
- What kind of datasets are being used or created to support this integration?
- How is clinical validation being approached in this space?
- What challenges are researchers and practitioners facing in maintaining the philosophical integrity of Ayurveda while using data-driven technologies?
Would appreciate any references, case studies, or ongoing research initiatives related to this topic.
Looking forward to your insights!
