A Review on Application of Artificial Intelligence for Detection of COVID-19

Isha Roy Chowdhuri | Dr. Arun Kiran Pal

Abstract: COVID-19 has been a significant concern since its arrival in the world. The virus has claimed around 64 lakhs human lives and has been a major threat due to our lack of awareness and ignorance. In spite of applying techniques such as real-time polymerase chain reaction, and computerized tomography scans, we have been unable to detect a specific cure to the nefarious threat looming around our planet. The present investigation provides an early evaluation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technique in the detection of COVID-19. The main areas where AI can contribute to the fight against COVID-19 are discussed. It is concluded that AI has not yet been impactful against COVID19 but it shows potential applications to detect COVID-19. Its utilisation is hampered due to lack of data, and by too much data. Overcoming these constraints will need a careful balance between data privacy and public health, and rigorous human-AI interaction. It is unlikely that these will be addressed in time to be of much help during the present pandemic. In the meantime, substantial gathering of diagnostic data on who is infectious will be essential to save lives, train AI, and limit economic damages.
