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.
