Image Steganography is the process of hiding information which can be text, image or video inside a cover image. The secret information is hidden in a way that it not visible to the human eyes. Deep learning technology, which has emerged as a powerful tool in various applications including image steganography, has received increased attention recently. The main goal of this paper is to explore and discuss various deep learning methods available in image steganography field. Deep learning techniques used for image steganography can be broadly divided into three categories -traditional methods, Convolutional Neural Network-based and General Adversarial Network-based methods. Along with the methodology, an elaborate summary on the datasets used, experimental set-ups considered and the evaluation metrics commonly used are described in this paper. A table summarizing all the details are also provided for easy reference. This paper aims to help the fellow researchers by compiling the current trends, challenges and some future direction in this field.
COVID-19 is a fast-spreading pandemic, and early detection is crucial for stopping the spread of infection. Lung images are used in the detection of coronavirus infection. Chest X-ray (CXR) and computed tomography (CT) images are available for the detection of COVID-19. Deep learning methods have been proven efficient and better performing in many computer vision and medical imaging applications. In the rise of the COVID pandemic, researchers are using deep learning methods to detect coronavirus infection in lung images. In this paper, the currently available deep learning methods that are used to detect coronavirus infection in lung images are surveyed. The available methodologies, public datasets, datasets that are used by each method and evaluation metrics are summarized in this paper to help future researchers. The evaluation metrics that are used by the methods are comprehensively compared.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
