Machine Learning in FET-based Chemical and Biological Sensors: A Mini Review

Abstract

This mini review summarizes some of the recent advances in machine-learning (ML)-driven chemical and biological sensors. Specific focus is on field-effect-transistor (FET)-based sensors with a description of their structures and detection mechanisms. Key ML techniques are briefly reviewed for an audience not familiar with the basic principles. We mainly discuss two aspects: (1) data analysis based on ML and (2) ML applied to sensor design. In conclusion, the challenges and opportunities for the advancement of ML-based sensors are briefly considered.
