Scientists have created an artificial intelligence model that can detect if someone has coronavirus - purely from the sound of their cough. The AI algorithm, built in the US, correctly identified patients who were infected even if they had no other symptoms. Researchers say humans are unable to hear the vital difference in the sound of someone with a cough who is asymptomatic. They say this is because Covid-19 changes the way you produce sound, even if there are no symptoms. The model, developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), was 98.5% successful in detecting people who had officially tested positive for Covid-19.

Chinese technology giant Alibaba recently developed an AI system for diagnosing the COVID-19 (coronavirus). Alibaba's like Amazon, Microsoft, a video game company, and a nation-wide healthcare network all rolled into one with every branch being fed solutions from the company's world-class AI department. Our Couch Conferences bring together industry experts to discuss what's next Per a report from Nikkei's Asian Review (h/t TechSpot), Alibaba claims its new system can detect coronavirus in CT scans of patients' chests with 96% accuracy against viral pneumonia cases. And it only takes 20 seconds for the AI to make a determination – according to the report, humans generally take about 15 minutes to diagnose the illness as there can be upwards of 300 images to evaluate. The system was trained on images and data from 5,000 confirmed coronavirus cases and has already been tested in hospitals throughout China.

Summary: Researchers have developed a new app that uses artificial intelligence technology to determine whether a person has COVID-19 based on the sound of their cough. The app has a 70% accuracy rate. EPFL researchers have developed an artificial intelligence-based system that can listen to your cough and indicate whether you have COVID-19. With the new Coughvid app, developed by five researchers at EPFL's Embedded Systems Laboratory (ESL), you can record your cough on a smartphone and find out whether you might have COVID-19. So how can a smartphone app detect the new coronavirus?

US healthcare officials are working tirelessly to deliver coronavirus test results in a timely manner, but the process includes getting tested, having the sample processed and then delivering the results. Now, a scientist has developed new technology that can produce a diagnosis in just a matter of seconds and with 98 percent accuracy. Barath Narayanan, a scientist at the University of Dayton Research Institute, has designed a specific software code that can detect the disease just by scanning chest X-rays. The process uses a deep learning algorithm that was trained using scans of those with and without the disease in order to search searches for markings associated with coronavirus.

The novel coronavirus, also known as COVID-19 made its first appearance in December 2019 in China. It is believed to have originated from bats or pangolins in the meat markets that occupy the streets of Wuhan. Since then, the number of those infected has increased worldwide as the coronavirus spreads rapidly across the globe. Along with the growing fear rate in the United States with new travel advisories, and more deaths reported in the U.S. Pharmaceutical companies are gearing up to have a new vaccine on the market to combat the virus as the number of COVID-19 cases increase in the United States. The U.S. government is working diligently with pharmaceutical companies round the clock to produce a vaccine to treat the vastly growing coronavirus.
