Human-in-the-Loop Artificial Intelligence: A Systematic Review of Concepts, Methods, and Applications.
Review in Entropy (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The integration of human judgment into artificial intelligence (AI) systems has emerged as a key research direction, particularly for high-stakes applications where full automation remains insufficient. Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) AI represents a field that combines machine learning capabilities with human oversight, feedback, and decision-making at various stages of the AI pipeline. This survey provides a systematic review of HITL approaches, covering theoretical foundations, technical methods, ethical considerations, and domain-specific applications. We propose a unified taxonomy that categorizes HITL systems based on loop placement, interaction granularity, and temporal characteristics. This review synthesizes findings from healthcare, autonomous systems, cybersecurity, and other high-risk domains where human oversight is essential. We also examine the challenges of scalability, cognitive load, and trust calibration that affect the practical deployment of HITL systems. The final section outlines open research directions and introduces a framework for designing effective human-AI collaborative systems.
