Analysis of Deep Transfer Learning Methods for Early Diagnosis of the Covid-19 Disease with Chest X-ray Images

Abstract

This study aimed to present an analysis of deep transfer learning models to support the early diagnosis of Covid-19 disease using X-ray images. For this purpose, the deep transfer learning models VGG-16, VGG-19, Inception V3 and Xception, which were successful in the ImageNet competition, were used to detect Covid-19 disease. Also, 280 chest x-ray images were used for the training data, and 140 chest x-ray images were used for the test data. As a result of the statistical analysis, the most successful model was Inception V3 (%92), the next successful model was Xception (%91), and the VGG-16 and VGG-19 models gave the same result (%88). The proposed deep learning model offers significant advantages in diagnosing covid-19 disease issues such as test costs, test accuracy rate, staff workload, and waiting time for test results.
