The Scientific Days on AI in Agri-food and Healthcare
Smart AgriHealth Days 2025
Computer Science Department, Ferhat Abbas University - Setif 1, Algeria
Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping agri-food and healthcare, delivering new levels of precision, efficiency, and sustainability. Smart AgriHealth Days 2025 brings together experts to explore AI-driven innovation across these vital sectors.
Across two focused days—Day 1: AI in Healthcare and Day 2: AI in Agri‑food—the summit features keynotes, technical sessions, posters, and industry panels.
AI systems analyze complex medical images like X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs, providing earlier and more accurate diagnoses than traditional methods. AI can identify patterns that are invisible to the human eye, leading to better Healthcare outcomes.
Example: AI diagnostic tools can detect early signs of diseases such as cancer with a higher degree of accuracy than radiologists.
AI systems analyze real-time data from satellites, drones, and sensors to assess soil conditions, weather patterns, and crop healthcare. This helps farmers make informed decisions on irrigation, fertilization, and pest control, thus optimizing yields and reducing waste.
Example: AI-powered irrigation systems adjust water usage based on real-time soil moisture data, conserving water while ensuring healthy crop growth.
By leveraging AI to analyze patient data—such as genetic profiles, lifestyle information, and medical history—healthcare providers can tailor treatments that are more effective and suited to the individual's needs.
Example: AI-based algorithms assess patients' genetic information to recommend personalized cancer treatment plans, improving the efficacy of therapies.
AI-driven robots handle labor-intensive agricultural tasks such as planting, weeding, and harvesting autonomously. This reduces the reliance on manual labor while enhancing operational efficiency and accuracy.
Example: Autonomous tractors and robotic harvesters plant seeds and harvest crops with precision, reducing human error and maximizing productivity.
AI accelerates drug discovery by simulating chemical reactions, predicting how new drugs interact with biological systems, and identifying potential drug candidates much faster than conventional methods.
Example: AI-driven platforms like Atomwise use deep learning to identify promising drug compounds, reducing the time needed for initial drug screening phases.
AI is revolutionizing the food supply chain by predicting demand, managing inventory, and minimizing food waste. It allows for better forecasting of market needs and more efficient production schedules.
Example: AI models predict high-demand products in specific regions, allowing manufacturers to adjust production and avoid overproduction and food waste.
AI-powered surgical robots assist surgeons in performing complex operations with greater precision, accuracy, and control. These robots allow for minimally invasive procedures, reducing patient recovery time and improving surgical outcomes.
Example: The da Vinci Surgical System enables surgeons to perform delicate procedures with enhanced dexterity and control, lowering the risk of complications.
AI-based inspection systems monitor food quality during processing and packaging, ensuring higher safety and consistency standards. These systems can detect contaminants and ensure that food products meet strict safety regulations.
Example: AI-powered cameras and sensors detect impurities or quality defects in fruits, vegetables, and packaged food items, preventing unsafe products from reaching consumers.
AI devices continuously monitor patients' vital signs, predicting potential Healthcare complications before they escalate. Predictive analytics driven by AI allow healthcare providers to take proactive measures, improving patient care and reducing emergency hospitalizations.
Example: AI-based monitoring systems alert hospital staff to early signs of patient deterioration, enabling timely intervention and reducing the likelihood of critical Healthcare incidents.
AI promotes sustainable agricultural practices by optimizing resource use, such as water, energy, and fertilizers, while reducing the environmental impact.
Example: Smart farming technologies use AI to allocate water more effectively, reduce energy consumption in food processing facilities, and monitor environmental conditions to minimize the ecological footprint of farming activities.
