Automatic diagnosis of COVID-19 with MCA-inspired TQWT-based classification of chest X-ray images.

In this era of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), an accurate method of diagnosis with less diagnosis time and cost can effectively help in controlling the disease spread with the new variants taking birth from time to time. In order to achieve this, a two-dimensional (2D) tunable Q-wavelet transform (TQWT) based on a memristive crossbar array (MCA) is introduced in this work for the decomposition of chest X-ray images of two different datasets. TQWT has resulted in promising values of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity index measure (SSIM) at the optimum values of its parameters namely quality factor (Q) of 4, and oversampling rate (r) of 3 and at a decomposition level (J) of 2.
