A Novel Approach to Detect Coronavirus Based on Lung x-ray Image and Convolutional Neural Networks
View PDF Abstract
The coronavirus has become a global crisis in recent months. The virus has disrupted or shut down many social, economic, sports, scientific, etc. activities. In addition to the medical importance of this Disease, its rapid and accurate diagnosis is an important need. In this study, we proposed a novel method to detect coronavirus using machine learning and classification algorithms based on lung images. In general, the method consists of two steps. At the first step, a convolutional neural network is trained with a data set of lung images that determine whether a viral infection exists or not. In the second step, another network is used to detect if the existence of viral infection is considered coronavirus or not. Experimental tests have been conducted that show the correct diagnosis can be made with 95.8%.
