Deep Learning-and Transfer Learning-based Models for COVID-19 Detection using Radiography Images

Abstract

Image classification and segmentation techniques are still very popular in the medical field (for healthcare), in which the medical image plays an important role in the detection and screening of diseases. Recently, the spread of new viral diseases, namely Covid-19, requires powerful computer models and rich resources (datasets) to fight this phenomenon. In this study, we propose to examine the CNN Deep Learning algorithm and two Transfer Learning models, namely RestNet50 and MobileNetV2 using the pretrained model of the ImageNet database, experimented on the new dataset (COVID-QU-Ex Dataset 2022) offered by the University of Qatar. These models are tested to classify radiography images into two classes (Covid19 and Normal). The results achieved by CNN (Acc =95.97%), ResNet50 (Acc =95.53%) and MobileNetV2 (Acc =97.32%) show that these algorithms are promising in order to combat this Covid-19 disease by detecting it through thoracic images (Chest X-ray type).
