A preliminary analysis of AI based smartphone application for diagnosis of COVID-19 using chest X-ray images.

The COVID-19 outbreak has catastrophically affected both public health system and world economy. Swift diagnosis of the positive cases will help in providing proper medical attention to the infected individuals and will also aid in effective tracing of their contacts to break the chain of transmission. Blending Artificial Intelligence (AI) with chest X-ray images and incorporating these models in a smartphone can be handy for the accelerated diagnosis of COVID-19.

Disease Classification in Eggplant Using Pre-trained VGG16 and MSVM.

Currently, the application of deep learning in crop disease classification is one of the active areas of research for which an image dataset is required. Eggplant (Solanum melongena) is one of the important crops, but it is susceptible to serious diseases which hinder its production. Surprisingly, so far no dataset is available for the diseases in this crop.
