In the last three months, it feels as if all of us have become armchair data scientists. As scientists across the globe race to find a cure for the scourge that is COVID-19, we’re all learning hard lessons about bell curves and epidemiological models. We’re also getting a crash course in infectious disease and pubilic

Amazon has unveiled its latest attempt to curb the spread of COVID-19 through its warehouses: an AI camera system known as the “Distance Assistant.” The cameras are connected to sensors that measure the distance between workers, and machine learning models that differentiate them from their surroundings. A 50-inch monitor tracks their movements, using visual overlays to show whether they’re within

Google‘s AI team has released a new tool to help researchers traverse through a trove of coronavirus papers, journals, and articles. The COVID-19 research explorer tool is a semantic search interface that sits on top of the COVID-19 Open Research Dataset (CORD-19). The team says that traditional search engines are sufficient at answering queries such as “What are the symptoms

Data scientists have attempted to answer the question on everyone’s mind: When will the coronavirus pandemic end? Their predictions use a mathematical model known as SIR (susceptible, infected, recovered), which calculates the spread and recovery of diseases. Researchers from Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) fed the model data on confirmed infections, tests conducted, and deaths
