MIT boffins use AI to spot COVID-19 – Fudzilla
Sound of hacking Scientists from MIT have developed a new AI model that can detect COVID-19 from a simple forced cough.
Evidence shows that the AI can spot differences in coughing that can’t be heard with the human ear, and if the detection system can be incorporated into a device like a smartphone, the research team thinks it could become a useful early screening tool. The work builds on research that was already happening into Alzheimer’s detection through coughing and talking.
Once the pandemic started to spread, the team turned its attention to COVID-19 instead, tapping into what had already been learned about…
