Machine Learning for Abstract Screening: A Tutorial on How to Use ASReview

When performing a systematic review, a large portion of time is spent on abstract screening. This process can be sped up using machine learning. In this tutorial, the tool ASReview will be introduced, along with methodological considerations for incorporating it into your systematic review. This session will start with a short talk introducing the tool and what to consider when using it, followed by a hands-on session.

This workshop will be based on the following paper:
