COVID-19 is an infectious viral disease that mostly affects the lungs. That quickly spreads across the world. Early detection of the virus boosts the chances of patients recovering quickly worldwide. Many radiographic techniques are used to diagnose an infected person such as X-rays, deep learning technology based on a large amount of chest x-ray images is used to diagnose COVID-19 disease. Because of the scarcity of available COVID-19 X-rays image, the limited COVID-19 Datasets are insufficient for efficient deep learning detection models. Another problem with a limited dataset is that training models suffer from over-fitting, and the predictions are not generalizable to address these problems. In this paper, we developed Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks (CGAN) to produce synthetic images close to real images for the COVID-19 case and traditional augmentation that was used to expand the limited dataset then used to train by Customized deep detection model. The Customized Deep learning model was able to obtain excellent detection accuracy of 97% accurate with only ten epochs. The proposed augmentation outperforms other augmentation techniques. The augmented dataset includes 6988 high-quality and resolution COVID-19 X-rays images. At the same time, the original COVID-19 X-rays images are only 587.
A global pandemic has emerged as a result of the widespread coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Deep learning (DL) techniques are used to diagnose COVID-19 based on many chest X-ray. Due to the scarcity of available X-ray images, the performance of DL for COVID-19 detection is lagging, underdeveloped, and suffering from overfitting. Overfitting happens when a network trains a function with an incredibly high variance to represent the training data perfectly. Consequently, medical images lack the availability of large labeled datasets, and the annotation of medical images is expensive and time-consuming for experts. As the COVID-19 virus is an infectious disease, these datasets are scarce, and it is difficult to get large datasets due to patient privacy. To address these issues by augmenting the COVID-19 dataset. In this paper, we adjusted conditional generation adversarial networks (CGAN) along with traditional augmentation (TA). The augmented dataset includes 6550 X-ray images that can be used to improve the diagnosis of COVID-19, and we have implemented five models of transfer learning procedures (DTL). The proposed procedures yielded high detection accuracy of 95%, 93%, 92%, and 92% in only ten epochs, for VGG-16, VGG-19, Xception, and Inception, respectively, and a custom convolutional neural network. Experimental results prove that our model achieves a high detection accuracy of up to 96% compared to other models. We hope it can be applied in other fields with rare data sets.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
