First outbreak of COVID-19 was in the city of Wuhan in China in Dec.2019 and then it becomes a pandemic disease all around the world. World Health Organization (WHO) confirmed more than 5.5 million cases and 341,155 deaths from the disease till the time of writing this paper. This new worldwide disease forced researchers to make more precise way to diagnose COVID-19. In the last decade, medical imaging techniques show its efficiency in helping radiologists to detect and diagnose the diseases. Deep learning and transfer learning algorithms are good techniques to detect disease from different image source types such as X-Ray and CT scan images. In this work we used a deep learning technique based on Convolution Neural Network (CNN) to detect and diagnose COVID-19 disease using Chest X-ray images.  Moreover, the modified AlexNet architecture is proposed in different scenarios were differing from each other in terms of the type of the pooling layers and/or the number of the neurons that have used in the second fully connected layer. The used chest X-ray images are gathered from two COVID-19 X-ray image datasets and one dataset includes large number of normal and pneumonia X-ray images. With the proposed models we obtained the same or even better result than the original AlexNet with having a smaller number of neurons in the second fully connected layer.

At the end of 2019, a new kind of coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) suffered worldwide and has become the pandemic coronavirus (COVID-19). The outbreak of this virus let to crisis around the world and kills millions of people globally. On March 2020, WHO (World Health Organization) declared it as pandemic disease. The first symptom of this virus is identical to flue and it destroys the human respiratory system. For the identification of this disease, the first key step is the screening of infected patients. The easiest and most popular approach for screening of the COVID-19 patients is chest X-ray images. In this study, our aim to automatically identify the COVID-19 and Pneumonia patients by the X-ray image of infected patient. To identify COVID19 and Pneumonia disease, the convolution Neural Network was training on publicly available dataset on GitHub and Kaggle. The model showed the 98% and 96% training accuracy for three and four classes respectively. The accuracy scores showed the robustness of both model and efficiently deployment for identification of COVID-19 patients.

Deep Learning has improved multi-fold in recent years and it has been playing a great role in image classification which also includes medical imaging. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been performing well in detecting many diseases including coronary artery disease, malaria, Alzheimer’s disease, different dental diseases, and Parkinson’s disease. Like other cases, CNN has a substantial prospect in detecting COVID-19 patients with medical images like chest X-rays and CTs. Coronavirus or COVID-19 has been declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). As of 8 August 2020, the total COVID-19 confirmed cases are 19.18 M and deaths are 0.716 M worldwide. Detecting Coronavirus positive patients is very important in preventing the spread of this virus. On this conquest, a CNN model is proposed to detect COVID-19 patients from chest X-ray images. Two more CNN models with different number of convolution layers and three other models based on pretrained ResNet50, VGG-16 and VGG-19 are evaluated with comparative analytical analysis. All six models are trained and validated with Dataset 1 and Dataset 2. Dataset 1 has 201 normal and 201 COVID-19 chest X-rays whereas Dataset 2 is comparatively larger with 659 normal and 295 COVID-19 chest X-ray images. The proposed model performs with an accuracy of 98.3% and a precision of 96.72% with Dataset 2. This model gives the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve area of 0.983 and F1-score of 98.3 with Dataset 2. Moreover, this work shows a comparative analysis of how change in convolutional layers and increase in dataset affect classifying performances.

Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious respiratory disease caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV2). This disease first appeared in Wuhan, China and spread throughout the world. COVID-19 has had a major impact on public health around the world. On March 9, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Early identification of people with COVID-19 can help limit the wider spread. One of the factors behind the rapid spread of the disease is the long clinical trial time. Rapid clinical testing is a challenge facing the spread of COVID-19. Most countries, including Indonesia, face the problem of lack of detection equipment and experts in diagnosing this disease. Chest X-Ray is one of the medical imaging techniques and also an alternative to identify the symptoms of pneumonia caused by COVID-19. This study aims to identify pneumonia caused by COVID-19 and other diseases based on Chest X-Ray. 107 Chest X-Ray images used as material for this study were obtained from the General Hospital of Ibnu Sina Padang Indonesia, which consisted of 27 images of pneumonia caused by COVID-19, 51 images with other diseases and 29 images of normal lungs. Then pre-processing is carried out as an initial stage and then feature extraction is carried out. Furthermore, the learning and identification process is carried out using the Backpropagation Artificial Neural Network (ANN) algorithm. In this study, 92 images were used as training data, and 15 images were used as test data. The results of calculations carried out using a network with a pattern of 16-100-100-100-2 obtained an accuracy value of 73%. The results of the identification prediction can be used as consideration in establishing a diagnosis of COVID-19 sufferers, but cannot be used as an absolute reference.

Abstract Objective: A deep learning framework for detecting COVID-19 is developed, and a small amount of chest X-ray data is used to accurately screen COVID-19.Methods: In this paper, we propose a deep learning framework that integrates convolution neural network and capsule network. DenseNet and CapsNet fusion are used to give full play to their respective advantages, reduce the dependence of convolution neural network on a large amount of data, and can quickly and accurately distinguish COVID-19 from Non-COVID-19 through chest X-ray imaging.Results: A total of 1472 chest X-ray COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 images are used, this method can achieve an accuracy of 99.32% and a precision of 100%, with 98.55% sensitivity and 100% specificity.Conclusion: These results show that the deep fusion neural network DenseCapsNet has good performance in novel coronavirus pneumonia X-ray detection. We also prove through experiments that the detection performance of DenseCapsNet is not affected fundamentally by a lack of data augmentation and pre-training.

Discovered on 31st December of 2019, the new Coronavirus has a high transmission capacity and was considered pandemic by the World Health Organization. In only six months is was able to spread all over the world and cause more than 600 thousand deaths. Early diagnosis is essential for governments to take public policies, such as social isolation, commerce control, and contact tracking. In order to make these actions, massive tests are required. On the other hand, diagnosis kits are expensive and not accessible to everyone. Medical imaging, such as thoracic x-ray and Computational Tomography (CT) has been used to visualize the lung and to verify at the first moment the presence of viral pneumonia. However, some countries have few radiologists specializing in chest x-ray analysis. The findings in the image are generally not so easy to see and can easily be confused with traditional pneumonia findings. For this reason, studies in Computer Vision are necessary, both to detect anomalies in imaging and to differentiate the other types of pneumonia. This paper addresses the initial results of a research, which developed an image classification methodology to differentiate x-ray images from sick patients, infected with Coronavirus, and healthy patients. The proposed method, based on the extraction and detection of patterns in texture and color features through a Deep Neural Network, obtained an average accuracy of 95% following a k-fold cross-validation experiment.

The new coronavirus (COVID-19) is a disease that is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). On 11 March 2020, the coronavirus outbreak has been labelled a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. In this context, chest X-ray imaging has become a remarkably powerful tool for the identification of patients with COVID-19 infections at an early stage when clinical symptoms may be unspecific or sparse. In this work, we propose a complete analysis of separability of COVID-19 and pneumonia in chest X-ray images by means of Convolutional Neural Networks. Satisfactory results were obtained that demonstrated the suitability of the proposed system, improving the efficiency of the medical screening process in the healthcare systems.

The use of chest X-ray images (CXI) to detect Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) caused by Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is life-saving important for both patients and doctors. This research proposed a multi-channel feature deep neural network algorithm to screen people infected with COVID-19. The algorithm integrates data oversampling technology and a multi-channel feature deep neural network model to carry out the training process in an end-to-end manner. In the experiment, we used a publicly available CXI database with 10,192 Normal, 6012 Lung Opacity (Non-COVID lung infection), and 1345 Viral Pneumonia images. Compared with traditional deep learning models (Densenet201, ResNet50, VGG19, GoogLeNet), the MFDNN model obtains an average test accuracy of 93.19% in all data. Furthermore, in each type of screening, the precision, recall, and F1 Score of the MFDNN model are also better than traditional deep learning networks. Secondly, compared with the latest CoroDet model, the MFDNN algorithm is 1.91% higher than the CoroDet model in the experiment of detecting the four categories of COVID19 infected persons. Finally, our experimental code will be placed at https://github.com/panliangrui/covid19.
