Pandemic Management Using Artificial Intelligence-Based Safety Measures

Abstract

The pandemic corona virus disease (COVID-19) caused by the virus ‘SARS-CoV-2' continues affecting the health and affluence of the worldwide population. The role of artificial intelligence in improving safety and health conditions has been studied in the chapter. The various fields of artificial intelligence such as machine learning, computer vision, deep learning, and natural language processing are contributing to almost every field ranging from healthcare, agriculture, automotive, astronomy, and many others. For overcoming a global outbreak such as COVID-19, conventional approaches are not feasible enough, and therefore the requirement for the more robust and automated techniques for making predictions in advance is essential. The vision of this chapter is to assess and survey the impact of artificial intelligence-based approaches in the management of pandemics and recommend procedures for the enhancement of the currently used techniques along with the imminent research areas in artificial intelligence for controlling pandemics.
