A Survey on how computer vision can response to urgent need to contribute in COVID-19 pandemics

The coronavirus first outbreak in Wuhan city of China by December 2019. Due to its highly contagious power, they spread promptly in the four continents. Moreover, it devastating our daily lives and cause huge economic damage. Therefore, it is urgent to detect the positive cases at the earliest and put then under isolation. Automatic virus detection using Machine Learning will be a valuable contribution to prevent the spread of this epidemic. The purpose of this paper is to present short reviews on the coronavirus detection. In reviewing the existing works, we summarized and compared some related works performed on a collection of CT and X-ray images provided from infected patients. We conclude the paper with some discussions on how computer vision can response to urgent need to contribute in pandemics and to investigate many aspects of new viral replication and pathogenesis.
