Abstract This study is designed to develop Artificial Intelligence (AI) based analysis tool that could accurately detect COVID-19 lung infections based on portable chest x-rays (CXRs). The frontline physicians and radiologists suffer from grand challenges for COVID-19 pandemic due to the suboptimal image quality and the large volume of CXRs. In this study, AI-based analysis tools were developed that can precisely classify COVID-19 lung infection. Publicly available datasets of COVID-19 (N = 1525), non-COVID-19 normal (N = 1525), viral pneumonia (N = 1342) and bacterial pneumonia (N = 2521) from the Italian Society of Medical and Interventional Radiology (SIRM), Radiopaedia, The… More >

Abstract Computerized tomography (CT) scans and X-rays play an important role in the diagnosis of COVID-19 and pneumonia. On the basis of the image analysis results of chest CT and X-rays, the severity of lung infection is monitored using a tool. Many researchers have done in diagnosis of lung infection in an accurate and efficient takes lot of time and inefficient. To overcome these issues, our proposed study implements four cascaded stages. First, for pre-processing, a mean filter is used. Second, texture feature extraction uses principal component analysis (PCA). Third, a modified whale optimization algorithm is used (MWOA) for a feature… More >
