Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease with acute intense respiratory syndrome which spread around the world for the very first time impacting the way of life with drastic uncertainty. It rapidly reached almost every nook and corner of the world and the World Health Organization (WHO) has announced COVID-19 as a pandemic. The health care institutions around the globe are looking for viable and real-time technological solutions to handle the virus for evading its spread and circumvent probable demises. Importantly, the artificial intelligence tools and techniques are playing a major role in fighting the effect of virus on the economic jolt by mimicking human intelligence by screening, analyzing, predicting and tracking the existing and likely future patients. Since the first reported case, all the government organizations in the world jumped into action to prevent it and many studies reported the role of AI in taking decisions analyzing big data available in public sphere. Thereby, this review focuses on identifying the significant implication of AI techniques used for the COVID-19 disease management in the public sphere by agglomerating the latest available information. It also discusses the pitfalls and future directions in handling sensitive big data required for advanced neural networks.
