5 Ways that AI is Used to Combat Corona Virus [COVID-19] [FULL]

Image
Hey guys and welcome back. So today we are going to be talking about the world most trending topic… the Corona Virus and how Artificial Intelligence and Data science can be used to combat it. This article will discuss the 5 main areas of AI research which are: Detection or Diagnosis of the disease. Tracking and Analytics of the spread of COVID 19 for Preventative Measures. Reduction - Disease Control – How do we physically stop the spread. Potential Cures, Treatments and Vaccines. And just as important as the disease itself is halting the spread of Misinformation. I’m not going to talk about what the disease is, how it works and current statistics because, there are a ton of news outlets, videos and sources that cover this in detail. I will just be focusing on How AI, Deep Learning and Data science is being used to combat COVID 19. All the sources and references that I mention in this lecture will be in the links section in the video description. I’ve attempted to the best of my

Model Targets in Unity 2020 & Vuforia 8

Have you ever tried searching for a tutorial on Vuforia's really cool technology called Model Targets? Have you found anything as yet? Well... that is why I'm writing this email to you, as I have just released the only Model Targets Full AR Tutorial . To check out the complete video on Model Targets in Unity 2020 and Vuforia 8 then click right HERE For those who are scratching your heads, wondering what the #*&! is model targets are...then let me briefly explain... So model targets is sort of like 3D object detection. You can train a model for Augmented Reality using the Vuforia Model Generator application which uses Deep Learning, to extract features from 3D CAD models on your PC. From this model, it detects the object and then implements Vuforia's !!Top Secret!!, cough...uhm, I mean propriety algorithms for tracking in AR. Check out my video to learn more - Click Here .

How AI & Datascience Can Combat the Corona Virus

Overview The Corona Virus of 2019 (COVID-19) has been declared as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) which is continuously threatening the lives of people across the globe. It originates from a virus family associated with SARS (virus outbreak in 2003) and the common cold. Originating from Mainland China, the spread is now across 56 plus countries with nearly 90,000 infected people in total. Clearly, the problem and its consequences need a quick preventive solution. The Center for Disease Control and the World Health Organization has come up with AI analytics and big data in finding a solution to this problem. AI and Analytics to the Rescue Surveillance System - For places like railway station where thousands of people pass by daily, it becomes important to have a track of infected people in order to stop the spread. An infrared thermometer is used to check the temperature of a person to diagnose for potential infections. A surveillance solution to this is a scr
