Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing many fields including food safety. In food safety, the available data generated within the agrifood systems can potentially feed into AI applications. This review presents an overview of the use of AI in different fields of food safety. The study introduces a framework of AI in food safety, focusing on the research domain, application context, data collection method, and AI technique. The AI tool ASReview, which uses active learning to select top-priority papers, was used to conduct the study in a systematic way. Over 150 peer-reviewed journal publications were reviewed and described according to this framework. The review concludes with a summary of the challenges for AI in food safety and an outlook of future opportunities for AI in food safety.
