Integrated ensemble CNN and explainable AI for COVID-19 diagnosis from CT scan and X-ray images.

In light of the ongoing battle against COVID-19, while the pandemic may eventually subside, sporadic cases may still emerge, underscoring the need for accurate detection from radiological images. However, the limited explainability of current deep learning models restricts clinician acceptance. To address this issue, our research integrates multiple CNN models with explainable AI techniques, ensuring model interpretability before ensemble construction.

Automated COVID-19 detection from X-ray and CT images with stacked ensemble convolutional neural network.

Automatic and rapid screening of COVID-19 from the radiological (X-ray or CT scan) images has become an urgent need in the current pandemic situation of SARS-CoV-2 worldwide. However, accurate and reliable screening of patients is challenging due to the discrepancy between the radiological images of COVID-19 and other viral pneumonia. So, in this paper, we design a new stacked convolutional neural network model for the automatic diagnosis of COVID-19 disease from the chest X-ray and CT images.

Uncertainty-aware convolutional neural network for COVID-19 X-ray images classification.

Deep learning (DL) has shown great success in the field of medical image analysis. In the wake of the current pandemic situation of SARS-CoV-2, a few pioneering works based on DL have made significant progress in automated screening of COVID-19 disease from the chest X-ray (CXR) images. But these DL models have no inherent way of expressing uncertainty associated with the model's prediction, which is very important in medical image analysis.
