How can AI and data science help to fight the coronavirus?

The challenge is based on the CORD-19 dataset, which contains tens of thousands of research papers. It is growing rapidly – faster than any researcher can read and digest. The challenge is to build tools to help medical researchers extract the information they need, even as more information continues to be published. On Monday, March 16, in the US, the White House together with, among others, the National Institutes of Health and Georgetown University, released the CORD-19 dataset and issued a call to action. In just a few days, more than 362 people from Ericsson raised their hands and offered to participate.
