Computer Vision for COVID-19 Control: A Survey
Global spread of COVID-19 pandemic has triggered an urgent need to contribute in the fight against an immense threat to human population. Computer Vision, as a sub field of Artificial Intelligence has enjoyed a recent success in solving various complex problems in health care and has a potential to contribute in the fight of controlling COVID-19. In response to this call, computer vision researchers are putting their knowledge base on trial to devise effective ways to counter COVID-19 challenge and serve global community. New contributions are being shared with every passing day. It motivated us to review the recent work, collect information about available research resources and an indication of future research directions. We want to make it available to computer vision research community to save their precious time. This survey paper is intended to provide a preliminary review of available literature about computer vision fight against COVID-19 pandemic.
