Abstract

COVID-19 has become the global epidemic affecting millions of people across the world. The fact that COVID-19 spreads quickly and devastating for elderly person makes this disease lethal as we witnessed a massive mortality rate in first, second, and third wave since 2020. Early diagnosis of COVID-19 is mandatory to prevent the spread and damage control, as only few nations have been able to vaccinate more than 50% of their population. The healthcare professionals commonly use the real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test to identify the COVID-19. Although RT-PCR test is considered more reliable among other COVID-19 detection tests; however, sensitivity of RT-PCR lies in the range of 65%-95% and took hours to diagnose the COVID-19 disease. Therefore, there exists an urgent need to develop more rapid and reliable diagnostics methods for COVID-19. In this regard, Chest X-ray and CT scan images are also being used to determine the abnormalities in the lungs of the COVID-19 patients which are found after the initial symptoms of this disease. We exploit the benefits of convolution neural network (CNN) for reliable detection of various diseases and used it for COVID-19 detection. For this purpose, we proposed a deep learning model to automatically detect the COVID-19 disease by processing the chest X-ray images. More specifically, we presented an Inception-ResNetV2 network-based deep learning model for COVID-19 detection. Performance of our model is evaluated on the publicly available COVID-19 dataset. The accuracy of 96% indicates the effectiveness of the proposed model for COVID-19 detection.
