Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 5, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023 Herein, a novel method that used artificial intelligence to analyze biological Raman spectra to identify microbes and their antimicrobial resistance at both genotype and phenotype levels is developed. The novel method exhibits higher level of accuracy than those obtained using the machine learning algorithms.
