Artificial intelligence model detects asymptomatic Covid-19 infections through cellphone-recorded coughs | MIT News | Massachusetts Institute of Technology

An artificial intelligence model can detect people who are asymptomatic with Covid-19, through cellphone-recorded coughs. The work was led by Brian Subirana and colleagues at the MIT Auto-ID Lab.

Results might provide a convenient screening tool for people who may not suspect they are infected.

These differences are not decipherable to the human ear. But it turns out that they can be picked up by artificial intelligence. Credits : Image: Chri
