## ASReview: Active learning for systematic reviews

Systematic Reviews are “top of the bill” in research. The number of scientific studies is increasing exponentially in many scholarly fields. Performing a
sound systematic review is a time-consuming and sometimes boring task. Our
software is designed to accelerate the step of screening abstracts and titles
with a minimum of papers to be read by a human with no or very few false negatives.

The Active learning for Systematic Reviews (ASReview) project implements learning algorithms that interactively query the
researcher. This way of interactive training is known as
[Active Learning](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_learning_(machine_learning)).
ASReview offers support for classical learning algorithms and
state-of-the-art learning algorithms like neural networks.

ASReview software implements two different modes:

- **Oracle**  The oracle modus is used to perform a systematic review with
  interaction by the reviewer (the 'oracle' in literature on active learning).
  The software presents papers to the reviewer, whereafter the reviewer classifies them. See [ASReview App](asreview-app).
- **Simulate**  The simulation modus is used to measure the performance of our
  software on existing systematic reviews. The software shows how many
  papers you could have potentially skipped during the systematic review.

## Installation

The ASReview software requires Python 3.6+ ([see Install Python](https://asreview.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html#install-python)). The project is available on [Pypi](https://pypi.org/project/asreview/). Install the
project with (Windows users might have to use the prefix `python -m`):

```bash
pip install asreview
```

Upgrade ASReview with the following command:

```bash
pip install --upgrade asreview
```

## ASReview app

The ASReview team developed a user-friendly user interface to replace the old command line interface. The new interface is still under development but is already available for testing and training purposes.

## Covid-19 plugin

[![Covid-19 Plugin](https://github.com/asreview/asreview/blob/master/images/intro-covid19-small.png?raw=true)](https://github.com/asreview/asreview-covid19 "ASReview against COVID-19")

The ASReview team developed a plugin for researchers and doctors to facilitate the reading of literature on the Coronavirus. The [plugin](https://github.com/asreview/asreview-covid19) makes the [CORD-19](https://pages.semanticscholar.org/coronavirus-research) dataset available in the ASReview software. We also constructed a second database with studies published after December 1st 2019 to search for relevant papers published during the Covid-19 crisis.

Install the plugin with the command below.

```
pip install asreview-covid19
```
