- Abstract: Novel coronavirus-19 (2019-nCoV or COVID-19) is by far the most dangerous
coronavirus ever identified for the third time in the three decades capable of
infecting not only the animals but also the humans across the globe. Nearly
6000 deaths have been recorded due mainly to COVID-19 outbreak worldwide and
more than 50% of these deaths appeared to have evolved from China where the
virus was thought to originate. The endemicity of COVID-19 dramatically
surpassed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle
East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) that were so far discovered in
2003 and 2012 respectively. Thus, the World Health Organization (WHO) has
declared the 2019-nCoV outbreak not only a public health emergency but also
pandemic in nature. Currently, over 120 countries including Nigeria were
reported to have more than 157,844 confirmed cases and 5,846 deaths due mainly
to COVID-19 outbreak as of March 15, 2020, 10:55 GMT. Artificial Intelligence
(AI) is widely used to aid in the prediction, detection, response, recovery of
disease and making clinical diagnosis. In this study, we highlighted the power
of AI in the containment and mitigation of the spread of COVID-19 outbreak in
African countries such as Nigeria where human to human contact is apparently
inevitable.

The current epidemic of COVID-19 has influenced more than 2,164,111 persons and killed more than 146,198 folks in over 200 countries across the globe.
The fundamental difficulties of AI in this situation is the limited availability of information and the uncertain nature of the disease.
Here in this article, we have tried to integrate AI to predict the infection outbreak and along with this, we have also tried to test whether AI with help deep learning can recognize COVID-19 infected chest X-Rays or not.

We introduce COVID-Net US, a highly efficient, self-attention deep convolutional neural network design tailored for COVID-19 screening from lung POCUS images.
Experimental results show that the proposed COVID-Net US can achieve an AUC of over 0.98 while achieving 353X lower architectural complexity, 62X lower computational complexity, and 14.3X faster inference times on a Raspberry Pi.
To advocate affordable healthcare and artificial intelligence for resource-constrained environments, we have made COVID-Net US open source and publicly available as part of the COVID-Net open source initiative.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been continuously affecting human lives and communities around the world.
We used multiple data sources, i.e., PubMed and ArXiv, and built several machine learning models to characterize the landscape of current COVID-19 research.
Our findings confirm the types of research available in PubMed and ArXiv differ significantly, with the former exhibiting greater diversity in terms of COVID-19 related issues.
