And if you still reach for the thermometer every time you cough, sneeze, or swear that you can’t taste that spicy burrito you ordered from Chipotle, soon there might be an app that will give you a definitive answer to the question, “Do I have COVID?” A report issued by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) discusses its use of Machine Learning to analyze coughs. Using ML, the app learns to tell the difference between those who have COVID-19 but are asymptomatic, and those who are healthy and do not have the virus.
The team working on the app was able to collect 70,000 recordings from a website that allowed the public to leave samples of coughs over smartphones and other devices. Overall there were 200,000 forced-cough samples collected with 2,500 confirmed to have COVID or were asymptomatic. 98.5% of the time, the model was able to accurately determine whether someone had COVID while for asymptomatic subjects it achieved an accuracy rate of 100%. The conclusion reached in the report says, “AI techniques can produce a free, non-invasive, real-time, any-time, instantly distributable, large-scale COVID-19 asymptomatic screening tool to augment current approaches in containing the spread of COVID-19. Practical use cases could be for daily screening of students, workers, and public as schools, jobs, and transport reopen, or for pool testing to quickly alert of outbreaks in groups.”
