Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

As the COVID19 pandemic evolves and coronavirus mutates to different variants, a high workload falls on the shoulders of doctors and radiologists. Identifying COVID19 through X-ray and Computed Tomography (CT) scanning in a short amount of time is vital because it helps doctors start the COVID19 treatment in the early stages. Deep Learning algorithms showed tremendous results in automating COVID19 detection using X-ray and CT scans. As there are not many survey papers on COVID19 detection using deep learning techniques, the goal of this paper is (1) to give a thorough discussion of COVID19 prediction considering Computer Vision problems like COVID19/pneumonia classification, detection, and segmentation, (2) to address new advances in deep learning like Transformers, GANs, and LSTMs, and (3) to cover technical issues like data security and data scarcity of X-ray and CT scans in COVID19.
