Deep Learning for Semen Analysis in Male Infertility: Computer Vision, Multimodal Fusion, and Clinical Translation
Male infertility contributes substantially to the global infertility burden, and sperm analysis remains central to diagnosis, treatment planning, and assisted reproductive technology. Conventional semen evaluation, however, is labor-intensive, operator-dependent, and limited by inter- and intra-observer variability, motivating the development of objective and reproducible computational approaches. This review provides a comprehensive and perspective-oriented synthesis of artificial intelligence-driven sperm analysis, with a focus on computer vision, deep learning, multimodal fusion, robustness
