Abstract

There has been a surge in biomedical imaging technologies with the recent advancement of deep learning. It is being used for diagnosis from X-ray, computed tomography (CT) scan, electrocardiogram (ECG), and electroencephalography (EEG) images. However, most of them are solely for particular disease detection. In this research, a computer-aided deep learning model named COVID-CXDNetV2 has been presented to detect two separate diseases, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and pneumonia, from the X-ray images in real-time. The proposed model is made based on you only look once (YOLOv2) with residual neural network (ResNet) and trained by a vast X-ray images dataset containing 3788 samples of three classes named COVID-19 pneumonia and normal. The model has obtained the maximum overall classification accuracy of 97.9% with a loss of 0.052 for multiclass classification (COVID-19, pneumonia, and normal) and 99.8% accuracy, 99.52% sensitivity, 100% specificity with a loss of 0.001 for binary classification (COVID-19 and normal), which beats some current state-of-the-art results. Authors believe that this method will be applicable in the medical domain for the diagnosis and will significantly contribute to real life.
