Bridging Traditional Modeling and Artificial Intelligence in Measles Epidemiology: Methods, Applications, and Future Directions—A Narrative Review

Measles remains one of the most contagious infectious diseases globally and continues to pose substantial public health risks despite decades of effective vaccination. This narrative review examines both classical and contemporary computational approaches used for measles monitoring, prediction, and control, with particular attention given to the emerging role of artificial intelligence (AI). We synthesized findings from 46 studies; 31 focused directly on measles and 15 on methodologically relev
