Leveraging deep transfer learning and explainable AI for accurate COVID-19 diagnosis: Insights from a multi-national chest CT scan study.

The COVID-19 pandemic has emerged as a global health crisis, impacting millions worldwide. Although chest computed tomography (CT) scan images are pivotal in diagnosing COVID-19, their manual interpretation by radiologists is time-consuming and potentially subjective. Automated computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) frameworks offer efficient and objective solutions.

Optimization of vision transformer-based detection of lung diseases from chest X-ray images.

Background: Recent advances in Vision Transformer (ViT)-based deep learning have significantly improved the accuracy of lung disease prediction from chest X-ray images. However, limited research exists on comparing the effectiveness of different optimizers for lung disease prediction within ViT models. This study aims to systematically evaluate and compare the performance of various optimization methods for ViT-based models in predicting lung diseases from chest X-ray images.
