Abstract In the current landscape of the COVID-19 pandemic, the utilization of deep learning in medical imaging, especially in chest computed tomography (CT) scan analysis for virus detection, has become increasingly significant. Despite its potential, deep learning’s “black box” nature has been a major impediment to its broader acceptance in clinical environments, where transparency in decision-making is imperative. To bridge this gap, our research integrates Explainable AI (XAI) techniques, specifically the Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations (LIME) method, with advanced deep learning models. This integration forms a sophisticated and transparent framework for COVID-19 identification, enhancing the capability… More >

Abstract Since 2019, the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) has been spreading rapidly worldwide, posing an unignorable threat to the global economy and human health. It is a disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, a single-stranded RNA virus of the genus Betacoronavirus. This virus is highly infectious and relies on its angiotensin-converting enzyme 2-receptor to enter cells. With the increase in the number of confirmed COVID-19 diagnoses, the difficulty of diagnosis due to the lack of global healthcare resources becomes increasingly apparent. Deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis models with high generalisability can effectively alleviate this pressure.… More >

Abstract Covid-19 is a deadly virus that is rapidly spread around the world towards the end of the 2020. The consequences of this virus are quite frightening, especially when accompanied by an underlying disease. The novelty of the virus, the constant emergence of different variants and its rapid spread have a negative impact on the control and treatment process. Although the new test kits provide almost certain results, chest X-rays are extremely important to detect the progression and degree of the disease. In addition to the Covid-19 virus, pneumonia and harmless opacity of the lungs also… More >

Abstract COVID-19 is the common name of the disease caused by the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) that appeared in Wuhan, China in 2019. Discovering the infected people is the most important factor in the fight against the disease. The gold-standard test to diagnose COVID-19 is polymerase chain reaction (PCR), but it takes 5–6 h and, in the early stages of infection, may produce false-negative results. Examining Computed Tomography (CT) images to diagnose patients infected with COVID-19 has become an urgent necessity. In this study, we propose a residual attention deep support vector data description SVDD (RADSVDD) approach… More >

Abstract The outbreak of novel Coronavirus COVID-19, an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has caused an unprecedented medical, economic, and social emergency that requires data-driven intelligence and decision support systems to counter the subsequent pandemic. Data-driven models and intelligent systems can assist medical researchers and practitioners to identify symptoms of COVID-19 infection. Several solutions based on medical image processing have been proposed for this purpose. However, the most shortcoming of hand craft image processing systems is the lower provided performances. Hence, for the first time, the proposed solution uses a deep learning model that… More >

Abstract The key to preventing the COVID-19 is to diagnose patients quickly and accurately. Studies have shown that using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to analyze chest Computed Tomography (CT) images is helpful for timely COVID-19 diagnosis. However, personal privacy issues, public chest CT data sets are relatively few, which has limited CNN's application to COVID-19 diagnosis. Also, many CNNs have complex structures and massive parameters. Even if equipped with the dedicated Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) for acceleration, it still takes a long time, which is not conductive to widespread application. To solve above problems, this paper… More >

Abstract Automated diagnosis based on medical images is a very promising trend in modern healthcare services. For the task of automated diagnosis, there should be flexibility to deal with an enormous amount of data represented in the form of medical images. In addition, efficient algorithms that could be adapted according to the nature of images should be used. The importance of automated medical diagnosis has been maximized with the evolution of COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 first appeared in China, Wuhan, and then it has exploded in the whole world with a very bad impact on our daily… More >
