MH-COVIDNet: Diagnosis of COVID-19 using deep neural networks and meta-heuristic-based feature selection on X-ray images.

ABSTRACT: COVID-19 is a disease that causes symptoms in the lungs and causes deaths around the world. Studies are ongoing for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease, which is defined as a pandemic. Early diagnosis of this disease is important for human life. This process is progressing rapidly with diagnostic studies based on deep learning. Therefore, to contribute to this field, a deep learning-based approach that can be used for early diagnosis of the disease is proposed in our study. In this approach, a data set consisting of 3 classes of COVID19, normal and pneumonia lung X-ray images was created, with each class containing 364 images. Pre-processing was performed using the image contrast enhancement algorithm on the prepared data set and a new data set was obtained. Feature extraction was completed from this data set with deep learning models such as AlexNet, VGG19, GoogleNet, and ResNet. For the selection of the best potential features, two metaheuristic algorithms of binary particle swarm optimization and binary gray wolf optimization were used. After combining the features obtained in the feature selection of the enhancement data set, they were classified using SVM. The overall accuracy of the proposed approach was obtained as 99.38%. The results obtained by verification with two different metaheuristic algorithms proved that the approach we propose can help experts during COVID-19 diagnostic studies.

Project description:BackgroundVisualization tools for deep learning models typically focus on discovering key input features without considering how such low level features are combined in intermediate layers to make decisions. Moreover, many of these methods examine a network's response to specific input examples that may be insufficient to reveal the complexity of model decision making.ResultsWe present DeepResolve, an analysis framework for deep convolutional models of genome function that visualizes how input features contribute individually and combinatorially to network decisions. Unlike other methods, DeepResolve does not depend upon the analysis of a predefined set of inputs. Rather, it uses gradient ascent to stochastically explore intermediate feature maps to 1) discover important features, 2) visualize their contribution and interaction patterns, and 3) analyze feature sharing across tasks that suggests shared biological mechanism. We demonstrate the visualization of decision making using our proposed method on deep neural networks trained on both experimental and synthetic data. DeepResolve is competitive with existing visualization tools in discovering key sequence features, and identifies certain negative features and non-additive feature interactions that are not easily observed with existing tools. It also recovers similarities between poorly correlated classes which are not observed by traditional methods. DeepResolve reveals that DeepSEA's learned decision structure is shared across genome annotations including histone marks, DNase hypersensitivity, and transcription factor binding. We identify groups of TFs that suggest known shared biological mechanism, and recover correlation between DNA hypersensitivities and TF/Chromatin marks.ConclusionsDeepResolve is capable of visualizing complex feature contribution patterns and feature interactions that contribute to decision making in genomic deep convolutional networks. It also recovers feature sharing and class similarities which suggest interesting biological mechanisms. DeepResolve is compatible with existing visualization tools and provides complementary insights.

Project description:Background and objectiveThe novel Coronavirus also called COVID-19 originated in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and has now spread across the world. It has so far infected around 1.8 million people and claimed approximately 114,698 lives overall. As the number of cases are rapidly increasing, most of the countries are facing shortage of testing kits and resources. The limited quantity of testing kits and increasing number of daily cases encouraged us to come up with a Deep Learning model that can aid radiologists and clinicians in detecting COVID-19 cases using chest X-rays.MethodsIn this study, we propose CoroNet, a Deep Convolutional Neural Network model to automatically detect COVID-19 infection from chest X-ray images. The proposed model is based on Xception architecture pre-trained on ImageNet dataset and trained end-to-end on a dataset prepared by collecting COVID-19 and other chest pneumonia X-ray images from two different publically available databases.ResultsCoroNet has been trained and tested on the prepared dataset and the experimental results show that our proposed model achieved an overall accuracy of 89.6%, and more importantly the precision and recall rate for COVID-19 cases are 93% and 98.2% for 4-class cases (COVID vs Pneumonia bacterial vs pneumonia viral vs normal). For 3-class classification (COVID vs Pneumonia vs normal), the proposed model produced a classification accuracy of 95%. The preliminary results of this study look promising which can be further improved as more training data becomes available.ConclusionCoroNet achieved promising results on a small prepared dataset which indicates that given more data, the proposed model can achieve better results with minimum pre-processing of data. Overall, the proposed model substantially advances the current radiology based methodology and during COVID-19 pandemic, it can be very helpful tool for clinical practitioners and radiologists to aid them in diagnosis, quantification and follow-up of COVID-19 cases.

Project description:BackgroundThe rapid and accurate diagnosis of fractures is crucial for timely treatment of trauma patients. Deep learning, one of the most widely used forms of artificial intelligence (AI), is now commonly employed in medical imaging for fracture detection. This study aimed to construct a deep learning model using big data to recognize multiple-fracture X-ray images of extremity bones.MethodsRadiographic imaging data of extremities were retrospectively collected from five hospitals between January 2017 and September 2020. The total number of people finally included was 25,635 and the total number of images included was 26,098. After labeling the lesions, the randomized method used 90% of the data as the training set to develop the fracture detection model, and the remaining 10% was used as the validation set to verify the model. The faster region convolutional neural networks (R-CNN) algorithm was adopted to construct diagnostic models for detection. The Dice coefficient was used to evaluate the image segmentation accuracy. The performances of detection models were evaluated with sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC).ResultsThe free-response receiver operating characteristic (FROC) curve value was 0.886 and 0.843 for the detection of single and multiple fractures, respectively. Additionally, the effective identification AUC for all parts was higher than 0.920. Notably, the AUC for wrist fractures reached 0.952. The average accuracy in detecting bone fracture regions in the extremities was 0.865. When analyzing single and multiple lesions at the patient level, the sensitivity was 0.957 for patients with multiple lesions and 0.852 for those with single lesions. In the segmentation task, the training set (the data set used by the machine learning model to train and learn) and the validation set (the data set used to evaluate the performance of the model) reached 0.996 and 0.975, respectively.ConclusionsThe faster R-CNN training algorithm exhibits excellent performance in simultaneously identifying fractures in the hands, feet, wrists, ankles, radius and ulna, and tibia and fibula on X-ray images. It demonstrates high accuracy, low false-negative rates, and controllable false-positive rates. It can serve as a valuable screening tool.
