This article examines the application of artificial intelligence (AI) models and methods in the selection and evaluation of innovative projects. With the increasing complexity of decision-making processes in innovation management, traditional evaluation techniques often fail to ensure objectivity, scalability, and predictive accuracy. The study analyzes machine learning algorithms, decision-support systems, and multi-criteria evaluation models used in project selection. The methodological framework is based on a systematic review of academic literature and empirical findings from recent studies. The results demonstrate that AI-based approaches significantly improve decision quality, reduce uncertainty, and enhance predictive capabilities. The article also discusses the limitations and challenges associated with AI implementation in innovation evaluation processes.
