Ctcovid19: Automatic Covid-19 Model for Computed Tomography Scans Using Deep Learning
Summary COVID-19 is an extremely contagious respiratory sickness instigated by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Common symptoms encompass fever, cough, fatigue, and breathing difficulties, often leading to hospitalization and fatalities in severe cases. CTCovid19 is a novel model tailored for COVID-19 detection, specifically honing in on a distinct deep learning structure, ResNet-50 trained with ImageNet serves as the foundational framework for our model. To enhance its capability to capture pertinent features related to COVID-19 patterns in Computed Tomography scans, the network underwent fine-tuning through layer adjustments and the addition of new ones. The model achieved accuracy rates that went from 97.0% to 99.8% across three widely recognized and documented datasets dedicated to COVID-19 detection.
