In this work, we propose a novel approach called Operational Support Estimator Networks (OSENs) for the support estimation task. Support Estimation (SE) is defined as finding the locations of non-zero elements in sparse signals. By its very nature, the mapping between the measurement and sparse signal is a non-linear operation.

In the traditional CS setup, the measurement matrices are selected as random matrices, and optimization-based iterative solutions are used to recover the signals. Using random matrices when handling large or multi-dimensional signals is cumbersome especially when it comes to iterative optimizations.

The proposed approach modifies the recently proposed Convolutional Support Estimator Networks (CSENs). CSENs are designed to compute a direct mapping for the Support Estimation (SE) task in a representation-based classification problem.

Support estimation (SE) of a sparse signal refers to finding the location indices of the nonzero elements in a sparse representation. Most of the traditional approaches dealing with SE problems are iterative algorithms based on greedy methods or optimization techniques. Indeed, a vast majority of them use sparse signal recovery (SR) techniques to obtain support sets instead of directly mapping the nonzero locations from denser measurements (e.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been the main agenda of the whole world ever since it came into sight. X-ray imaging is a common and easily accessible tool that has great potential for COVID-19 diagnosis and prognosis. Deep learning techniques can generally provide state-of-the-art performance in many classification tasks when trained properly over large data sets.

Computer-aided diagnosis has become a necessity for accurate and immediate coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) detection to aid treatment and prevent the spread of the virus. Numerous studies have proposed to use Deep Learning techniques for COVID-19 diagnosis. However, they have used very limited chest X-ray (CXR) image repositories for evaluation with a small number, a few hundreds, of COVID-19 samples.

As a result, accurate and reliable advance warning system for the early diagnosis of COVID-19 has now become a priority. The detection of COVID-19 in early stages is not a straightforward task from chest X-ray images according to expert medical doctors because the traces of the infection are visible only when the disease has progressed to a moderate or severe stage.

Many data modalities naturally have a multidimensional or tensorial format, with each dimension or tensor mode representing different features such as the spatial and temporal information in video sequences or the spatial and spectral information in hyperspectral images. However, in existing CL frameworks, the CS component utilizes either random or learned linear projection on the vectorized signal to perform signal acquisition, thus discarding the multidimensional structure of the signals.
