scholarly journals Pneumonia Detection using Artificial Neural Networks and Transfer Learning Model

Developing a system that helps in detecting pneumonia in chest x-ray images of lungs at a high accuracy. Firstly, a raw image is being preprocessed with the help of Otsu Thresholding and an equalizer. This helps in detecting pneumonia clouds and identifying the ratio of healthy lung region to the total region minimum. The above task is determined by importing the original chest x-ray images in the dataset and then calculating the ratio. The preprocessed data is then fed into Inception V3 model that accurately predicts the percentage of how much pneumonia is spread. This helps in identifying pneumonia present in that area and helps determining the prescribed drugs to help them clear off the symptoms.

Covid-19 menyerang sel-sel epitel yang melapisi saluran pernapasan sehingga dalam kasus ini dapat memanfaatkan gambar x-ray dada untuk menganalisis kesehatan paru-paru pada pasien. Menggunakan x-ray dalam bidang medis merupakan metode yang lebih cepat, lebih mudah dan tidak berbahaya yang dapat dimanfaatkan pada banyak hal. Salah satu metode yang paling sering digunakan dalam klasifikasi gambar adalah convolutional neural networks (CNN). CNN merupahan jenis neural network yang sering digunakan dalam data gambar dan sering digunakan dalam mendeteksi dan mengenali object pada sebuah gambar. Model arsitektur pada metode CNN juga dapat dikembangkan dengan transfer learning yang merupakan proses menggunakan kembali model pre-trained yang dilatih pada dataset besar, biasanya pada tugas klasifikasi gambar berskala besar. Tinjauan literature review ini digunakan untuk menganalisis penggunaan transfer learning pada CNN sebagai metode yang dapat digunakan untuk mendeteksi covid-19 pada gambar x-ray dada. Hasil sistematis review menunjukkan bahwa algoritma CNN dapat digunakan dengan akruasi yang baik dalam mendeteksi covid-19 pada gambar x-ray dada dan dengan pengembangan model transfer learning mampu mendapatkan performa yang maksimal dengan dataset yang besar maupun kecil.Kata Kunci—CNN, transfer learning, deteksi, covid-19Covid-19 attacks the epithelial cells lining the respiratory tract so that in this case it can utilize chest x-ray images to analyze the health of the lungs in patients. Using x-rays in the medical field is a faster, easier and harmless method that can be utilized in many ways. One of the most frequently used methods in image classification is convolutional neural networks (CNN). CNN is a type of neural network that is often used in image data and is often used in detecting and recognizing objects in an image. The architectural model in the CNN method can also be developed with transfer learning which is the process of reusing pre-trained models that are trained on large datasets, usually on the task of classifying large-scale images. This literature review review is used to analyze the use of transfer learning on CNN as a method that can be used to detect covid-19 on chest x-ray images. The systematic review results show that the CNN algorithm can be used with good accuracy in detecting covid-19 on chest x-ray images and by developing transfer learning models able to get maximum performance with large and small datasets.Keywords—CNN, transfer learning, detection, covid-19

Objective: Automatic prediction of COVID-19 using deep convolution neural networks based pre-trained transfer models and Chest X-ray images. Method: This research employs the advantages of computer vision and medical image analysis to develop an automated model that has the clinical potential for early detection of the disease. Using Deep Learning models, the research aims at evaluating the effectiveness and accuracy of different convolutional neural networks models in the automatic diagnosis of COVID-19 from X-ray images as compared to diagnosis performed by experts in the medical community. Result: Due to the fact that the dataset available for COVID-19 is still limited, the best model to use is the InceptionNetV3. Performance results show that the InceptionNetV3 model yielded the highest accuracy of 98.63% (with data augmentation) and 98.90% (without data augmentation) among the three models designed. However, as the dataset gets bigger, the Inception ResNetV2 and NASNetlarge will do a better job of classification. All the performed networks tend to over-fit when data augmentation is not used, this is due to the small amount of data used for training and validation. Conclusion: A deep transfer learning is proposed to detecting the COVID-19 automatically from chest X-ray by training it with X-ray images gotten from both COVID-19 patients and people with normal chest Xrays. The study is aimed at helping doctors in making decisions in their clinical practice due its high performance and effectiveness, the study also gives an insight to how transfer learning was used to automatically detect the COVID-19.

AbstractBackgroundIn the midst of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak, chest X-ray (CXR) imaging is playing an important role in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with COVID-19. Machine learning solutions have been shown to be useful for X-ray analysis and classification in a range of medical contexts.PurposeThe purpose of this study is to create and evaluate a machine learning model for diagnosis of COVID-19, and to provide a tool for searching for similar patients according to their X-ray scans.Materials and MethodsIn this retrospective study, a classifier was built using a pre-trained deep learning model (ReNet50) and enhanced by data augmentation and lung segmentation to detect COVID-19 in frontal CXR images collected between January 2018 and July 2020 in four hospitals in Israel. A nearest-neighbors algorithm was implemented based on the network results that identifies the images most similar to a given image. The model was evaluated using accuracy, sensitivity, area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and of the precision-recall (P-R) curve.ResultsThe dataset sourced for this study includes 2362 CXRs, balanced for positive and negative COVID-19, from 1384 patients (63 +/- 18 years, 552 men). Our model achieved 89.7% (314/350) accuracy and 87.1% (156/179) sensitivity in classification of COVID-19 on a test dataset comprising 15% (350 of 2326) of the original data, with AUC of ROC 0.95 and AUC of the P-R curve 0.94. For each image we retrieve images with the most similar DNN-based image embeddings; these can be used to compare with previous cases.ConclusionDeep Neural Networks can be used to reliably classify CXR images as COVID-19 positive or negative. Moreover, the image embeddings learned by the network can be used to retrieve images with similar lung findings.SummaryDeep Neural Networks and can be used to reliably predict chest X-ray images as positive for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) or as negative for COVID-19.Key ResultsA machine learning model was able to detect chest X-ray (CXR) images of patients tested positive for coronavirus disease 2019 with accuracy of 89.7%, sensitivity of 87.1% and area under receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.95.A tool was created for finding existing CXR images with imaging characteristics most similar to a given CXR, according to the model’s image embeddings.

AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a devastating effect on the health and well-being of the global population. A vital step in the combat towards COVID-19 is a successful screening of contaminated patients, with one of the key screening approaches being radiological imaging using chest radiography. This study aimed to automatically detect COVID‐ 19 pneumonia patients using digital chest x‐ ray images while maximizing the accuracy in detection using deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN). The dataset consists of 864 COVID‐ 19, 1345 viral pneumonia and 1341 normal chest x‐ ray images. In this study, DCNN based model Inception V3 with transfer learning have been proposed for the detection of coronavirus pneumonia infected patients using chest X-ray radiographs and gives a classification accuracy of more than 98% (training accuracy of 97% and validation accuracy of 93%). The results demonstrate that transfer learning proved to be effective, showed robust performance and easily deployable approach for COVID-19 detection.
