Prediction of the COVID disease using lung CT images by Deep Learning algorithm: DETS-optimized Resnet 101 classifier.

As a result of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) disease due to SARS-CoV2 becoming a pandemic, it has spread over the globe. It takes time to evaluate the results of the laboratory tests because of the rising number of cases each day. Therefore, there are restrictions in terms of both therapy and findings. A clinical decision-making system with predictive algorithms is needed to alleviate the pressure on healthcare systems via Deep Learning (DL) algorithms. With the use of DL and chest scans, this research intends to determine COVID-19 patients by utilizing the Transfer Learning (TL)-based Generative Adversarial Network (Pix 2 Pix-GAN). Moreover, the COVID-19 images are then classified as either positive or negative using a Duffing Equation Tuna Swarm (DETS)-optimized Resnet 101 classifier trained on synthetic and real images from the Kaggle lung CT Covid dataset. Implementation of the proposed technique is done using MATLAB simulations. Besides, is evaluated via accuracy, precision, F1-score, recall, and AUC. Experimental findings show that the proposed prediction model identifies COVID-19 patients with 97.2% accuracy, a recall of 95.9%, and a specificity of 95.5%, which suggests the proposed predictive model can be utilized to forecast COVID-19 infection by medical specialists for clinical prediction research and can be beneficial to them.
