الذكاء الاصطناعي في مكافحة كورونا : البحوث الحالية و المستقبلية

Abstract EN

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been applied widely in our daily lives in different ways with numerous successful stories.

AI also contributed in dealing with the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, which spreaded out around the globe.

This article presents a survey of AI methods being used in the fight against the COVID-19 outbreak and outlines the crucial roles of AI research in this unprecedented battle.

This article reports several areas where AI plays as an essential component, from medical image processing, data analysis, text mining and natural language processing, to computational biology and medicine.

A summary of COVID- 19 related data sources that are available for research purposes is also presented.

We highlight groups of problems related to the COVID-19 pandemic and point out promising AI methods and tools that can be used to solve those problems.

It is envisaged that this study will provide AI researchers and the wider community with an overview of the current status of AI applications and motivate researchers in harnessing AI potentials in the fight against COVID-19.
