KEY POINTS
· Defence Research and Development Organization’s Atman AI, developed along with 5C Network and HCG Academics, incremental progress in the larger picture.
· Atman AI can detect Covid-19 infection and its severity from radiological images of the lungs within seconds.
· Given RTPCR testing is already quite stretched and computerised tomography (CT) is both expensive and not readily available in many geographies.
· Atman AI will help early detection with obvious cost-benefits. And, with ability to detect severity, it can play a seminal role in triage decisions in hospitals/tele-consultations.
· Given it is based on machine-learning the AI tool ‘learnt’ to identify radiological signatures of Covid-19 from chest X-rays of RTPCR-positive patients with each image fed to it.
· Mumbai-based Qure.ai, Business Standard reports, is using AI to identify people at high risk of Covid-19 well in advance while Facebook’s tool can predict four days in advance more accurately than human experts if a patient will need intensive care by studying sequential chest X-rays.
· Tamil Nadu’s and Telangana’s use of AI apps to detect mask-usage violations, machine-learning apps that can detect Covid-19 from sound of cough, etc, the examples of technology being used in the fight against the pandemic are now many.
· The National Digital Health Mission gives India the opportunity to build on health data with relevant citizen-interest safeguards to make more and more such tools for securing the country’s future health.
