Machine learning is a branch of computing that studies the design of algorithms with the ability to “learn.” A subfield would be deep learning, which is a series of techniques that make use of deep artificial neural networks, that is, with more than one hidden layer, to computationally imitate the structure and functioning of the human organ and related diseases. The analysis of health interest images with deep learning is not limited to clinical diagnostic use. It can also, for example, facilitate surveillance of disease-carrying objects. There are other examples of recent efforts to use deep learning as a tool for diagnostic use. Chest X-rays are one approach to identify tuberculosis; by analysing the X-ray, you can spot any abnormalities. A method for detecting the presence of tuberculosis in medical X-ray imaging is provided in this paper. Three different classification methods were used to evaluate the method: support vector machines, logistic regression, and nearest neighbors. Cross-validation and the formation of training and test sets were the two classification scenarios used. The acquired results allow us to assess the method’s practicality.

Chest X Ray

The COVID-19 disease has spread all over the world, representing an intriguing challenge for humanity as a whole. The efficient diagnosis of humans infected by COVID-19 still remains an increasing need worldwide. The chest X-ray imagery represents, among others, one attractive means to detect COVID-19 cases efficiently. Many studies have reported the efficiency of using deep learning classifiers in diagnosing COVID-19 from chest X-ray images. They conducted several comparisons among a subset of classifiers to identify the most accurate. In this paper, we investigate the potential of the combination of state-of-the-art classifiers in achieving the highest possible accuracy for the detection of COVID-19 from X-ray. For this purpose, we conducted a comprehensive comparison study among 16 state-of-the-art classifiers. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study considering this number of classifiers. This paper’s innovation lies in the methodology that we followed to develop the inference system that allows us to detect COVID-19 with high accuracy. The methodology consists of three steps: (1) comprehensive comparative study between 16 state-of-the-art classifiers; (2) comparison between different ensemble classification techniques, including hard/soft majority, weighted voting, Support Vector Machine, and Random Forest; and (3) finding the combination of deep learning models and ensemble classification techniques that lead to the highest classification confidence on three classes. We found that using the Majority Voting approach is an adequate strategy to adopt in general cases for this task and may achieve an average accuracy up to 99.314%.

AbstractCardiac accessory pathways (APs) in Wolff–Parkinson–White (WPW) syndrome are conventionally diagnosed with decision tree algorithms; however, there are problems with clinical usage. We assessed the efficacy of the artificial intelligence model using electrocardiography (ECG) and chest X-rays to identify the location of APs. We retrospectively used ECG and chest X-rays to analyse 206 patients with WPW syndrome. Each AP location was defined by an electrophysiological study and divided into four classifications. We developed a deep learning model to classify AP locations and compared the accuracy with that of conventional algorithms. Moreover, 1519 chest X-ray samples from other datasets were used for prior learning, and the combined chest X-ray image and ECG data were put into the previous model to evaluate whether the accuracy improved. The convolutional neural network (CNN) model using ECG data was significantly more accurate than the conventional tree algorithm. In the multimodal model, which implemented input from the combined ECG and chest X-ray data, the accuracy was significantly improved. Deep learning with a combination of ECG and chest X-ray data could effectively identify the AP location, which may be a novel deep learning model for a multimodal model.

Data mining techniques are included with Ensemble learning and deep learning for the classification. The methods used for classification are, Single C5.0 Tree (C5.0), Classification and Regression Tree (CART), kernel-based Support Vector Machine (SVM) with linear kernel, ensemble (CART, SVM, C5.0), Neural Network-based Fit single-hidden-layer neural network (NN), Neural Networks with Principal Component Analysis (PCA-NN), deep learning-based H2OBinomialModel-Deeplearning (HBM-DNN) and Enhanced H2OBinomialModel-Deeplearning (EHBM-DNN). In this study, experiments were conducted on pre-processed datasets using R programming and 10-fold cross-validation technique. The findings show that the ensemble model (CART, SVM and C5.0) and EHBM-DNN are more accurate for classification, compared with other methods.

The disease caused by the new coronavirus (COVID-19) has been plaguing the world for months and the number of cases are growing more rapidly as the days go by. Therefore, finding a way to identify who has the causative virus is impressive, in order to find a way to stop its proliferation. In this paper, a complete and applied study of convolutional support machines will be presented to classify patients infected with COVID-19 using X-ray data and comparing them with traditional convolutional neural network (CNN). Based on the fitted models, it was possible to observe that the convolutional support vector machine with the polynomial kernel (CSVMPol) has a better predictive performance. In addition to the results obtained based on real images, the behavior of the models studied was observed through simulated images, where it was possible to observe the advantages of support vector machine (SVM) models.

Novel Coronavirus

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an illness caused by a novel coronavirus family. One of the practical examinations for COVID-19 is chest radiography. COVID-19 infected patients show abnormalities in chest X-ray images. However, examining the chest X-rays requires a specialist with high experience. Hence, using deep learning techniques in detecting abnormalities in the X-ray images is presented commonly as a potential solution to help diagnose the disease. Numerous research has been reported on COVID-19 chest X-ray classification, but most of the previous studies have been conducted on a small set of COVID-19 X-ray images, which created an imbalanced dataset and affected the performance of the deep learning models. In this paper, we propose several image processing techniques to augment COVID-19 X-ray images to generate a large and diverse dataset to boost the performance of deep learning algorithms in detecting the virus from chest X-rays. We also propose innovative and robust deep learning models, based on DenseNet201, VGG16, and VGG19, to detect COVID-19 from a large set of chest X-ray images. A performance evaluation shows that the proposed models outperform all existing techniques to date. Our models achieved 99.62% on the binary classification and 95.48% on the multi-class classification. Based on these findings, we provide a pathway for researchers to develop enhanced models with a balanced dataset that includes the highest available COVID-19 chest X-ray images. This work is of high interest to healthcare providers, as it helps to better diagnose COVID-19 from chest X-rays in less time with higher accuracy.
