AI Clinics on Mobile (AICOM): Universal AI Doctors for the Underserved and Hard-to-Reach

Abstract

<title>Abstract</title> This paper introduces Artificial Intelligence Clinics on Mobile (AICOM), an open-source project devoted to answering the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3 (SDG3) on health, which represents a universal recognition that health is fundamental to human capital and social and economic development. The core motivation for the AICOM project is the fact that over 80% of the people in the least developed countries (LDCs) own a mobile phone, even though less than 40% of these people have internet access. Hence, the key to maximize health care access is to empower health AI on resource-constrained mobile devices without connectivity. We have evaluated AICOM’s public health benefits through analyzing data from the World Bank. For technical development, multiple technologies, including model size shrinking, compute optimization, battery usage optimization have been developed and integrated into the AICOM framework to empower AI-based disease diagnostics and screening capability on resource-constrained mobile phones without connectivity.
