Abstract

Early diagnosis and timely initiation of treatment plans for diabetes are crucial for ensuring individuals' well-being. Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision are highly regarded for their ability to enhance the accessibility of large datasets for dynamic training and deliver efficient real-time intelligent technologies and predictable models. The application of AI and computer vision techniques to enhance the analysis of clinical data is referred to as eHealth solutions that employ advanced approaches to aid medical applications. This study examines several advancements and applications of machine learning, deep learning, and machine vision in global perception, with a focus on sustainability. This article discusses the significance of utilizing artificial intelligence and computer vision to detect diabetes, as it has the potential to significantly mitigate harm to human life. This paper provides several comments addressing challenges and recommendations for the use of this technology in the field of diabetes. This study explores the potential of employing Industry 4.0 technologies, including machine learning, deep learning, and computer vision robotics, as effective tools for effectively dealing with diabetes related aspects.
