Abstract

Lung diseases such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, and COVID-19 pose serious global health challenges, particularly in X-ray image classification where class distribution is often imbalanced. To address this issue, this study proposes a hybrid model based on concatenated CNN architectures and applies class weighting using focal loss multiclass. The dataset consists of 7,135 X-ray images divided into four main classes: pneumonia, tuberculosis, COVID-19, and normal. Focal loss with a gamma parameter of 2.0 is employed to enhance the model’s focus on minority classes. Evaluation results show that combined models such as DenseNet121 + VGG16 and VGG16 + ResNet50 achieve F1-scores of up to 0.87, outperforming single models. Grad-CAM visualizations also indicate that the combined models can recognize pathological areas more comprehensively and accurately. This approach proves effective in improving the accuracy and sensitivity of AI-based diagnostic systems.
