ASReview

ASReview is a screening tool that uses machine learning to reduce the amount of time spent screening the articles. By training an algorithm, the tool will reorganize the 'pile' of papers based on relevance. The tool does not remove any papers, nor does it any of the screening for you. It merely puts the papers that are most likely to be relevant for your project at the top of the pile, so that you can stop the screening process when you are no longer cming across any relevant papers. With a pile of 5,000 to 10,000 papers, this can save you lots of time.
