Tuberculosis is a life-threatening disease that mainly affects underdeveloped as well as developing nations. While lethal it is often resistive to antibiotics and the safest way to treat a patient is to detect the disease's presence as soon as possible. Various techniques have been developed to diagnose tuberculosis and radiography of the chest is one of such methods that works well for over a decade.. Though an effective method still the success depends on the medical officer who examines the chest X-rays. Thus ,this paper proposes an approach for detecting X-ray abnormalities using deep learning. The systems output is assessed on two open Montgomery and Shenz en chest X-ray datasets and accuracy of 84 percent is achieved.

Pneumonia is a life-threatening disease, which occurs in the lungs caused by either bacterial or viral infection. It can be life-endangering if not acted upon at the right time and thus the early diagnosis of pneumonia is vital. The paper aims to automatically detect bacterial and viral pneumonia using digital x-ray images. It provides a detailed report on advances in accurate detection of pneumonia and then presents the methodology adopted by the authors. Four different pre-trained deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN): AlexNet, ResNet18, DenseNet201, and SqueezeNet were used for transfer learning. A total of 5247 chest X-ray images consisting of bacterial, viral, and normal chest x-rays images were preprocessed and trained for the transfer learning-based classification task. In this study, the authors have reported three schemes of classifications: normal vs. pneumonia, bacterial vs. viral pneumonia, and normal, bacterial, and viral pneumonia. The classification accuracy of normal and pneumonia images, bacterial and viral pneumonia images, and normal, bacterial, and viral pneumonia were 98%, 95%, and 93.3%, respectively. This is the highest accuracy, in any scheme, of the accuracies reported in the literature. Therefore, the proposed study can be useful in more quickly diagnosing pneumonia by the radiologist and can help in the fast airport screening of pneumonia patients.

COVID-19 has been difficult to diagnose and treat at an early stage all over the world. The numbers of patients showing symptoms for COVID-19 have caused medical facilities at hospitals to become unavailable or overcrowded, which is a major challenge. Studies have recently allowed us to determine that COVID-19 can be diagnosed with the aid of chest X-ray images. To combat the COVID-19 outbreak, developing a deep learning (DL) based model for automated COVID-19 diagnosis on chest X-ray is beneficial. In this research, we have proposed a customized convolutional neural network (CNN) model to detect COVID-19 from chest X-ray images. The model is based on nine layers which uses a binary classification method to differentiate between COVID-19 and normal chest X-rays. It provides COVID-19 detection early so the patients can be admitted in a timely fashion. The proposed model was trained and tested on two publicly available datasets. Cross-dataset studies are used to assess the robustness in a real-world context. Six hundred X-ray images were used for training and two hundred X-rays were used for validation of the model. The X-ray images of the dataset were preprocessed to improve the results and visualized for better analysis. The developed algorithm reached 98% precision, recall and f1-score. The cross-dataset studies also demonstrate the resilience of deep learning algorithms in a real-world context with 98.5 percent accuracy. Furthermore, a comparison table was created which shows that our proposed model outperforms other relative models in terms of accuracy. The quick and high-performance of our proposed DL-based customized model identifies COVID-19 patients quickly, which is helpful in controlling the COVID-19 outbreak.

Covid-19 is a growing issue in society and there is a need for resources to manage the disease. This paper looks at studying the effect of class decomposition in our previously proposed deep Convolutional Neural Network, called DeTraC (Decompose, Transfer and Compose). DeTraC has the ability to robustly detect and predict Covid-19 from chest X-ray images. The experimental results showed that changing the number of clusters affected the performance of DeTraC and influenced the accuracy of the model. As the number of clusters increased, the accuracy decreased for the shallow tuning mode but increased for the deep tuning mode. This shows the importance of using suitable hyperparameter settings in order to get the best results from a deep learning model. The highest accuracy obtained, in this study, was 98.33% from the deep tuning model.

This study proposes a convolutional neural network model trained from scratch to classify and detect the presence of pneumonia from a collection of chest X-ray image samples. Unlike other methods that rely solely on transfer learning approaches or traditional handcrafted techniques to achieve a remarkable classification performance, we constructed a convolutional neural network model from scratch to extract features from a given chest X-ray image and classify it to determine if a person is infected with pneumonia. This model could help mitigate the reliability and interpretability challenges often faced when dealing with medical imagery. Unlike other deep learning classification tasks with sufficient image repository, it is difficult to obtain a large amount of pneumonia dataset for this classification task; therefore, we deployed several data augmentation algorithms to improve the validation and classification accuracy of the CNN model and achieved remarkable validation accuracy.

Abstract Tuberculosis(TB) is one of the top 10 causes of death worldwide, and drug-resistant TB is a major public health concern especially in resource-constrained countries. In such countries, molecular diagnosis of drug-resistant TB remains a challenge; and imaging tools such as X-rays, which are cheaply and widely available, can be a valuable supplemental resource for early detection and screening. This study uses a specialized convolutional neural network to perform binary classification of chest X-ray images to classify drug-resistant and drug-sensitive TB. The models were trained and validated using the TBPortals dataset which contains 2,973 labeled X-ray images from TB patients. The classifiers were able to identify the presence or absence of drug-resistant Tuberculosis with an AUROC between 0.66–0.67, which is an improvement over previous attempts using deep learning networks.
