Automatic classification between COVID-19 pneumonia, lung cancer and normal lung tissues on chest CT Scans

Abstract

Coronavirus sickness (COVID-19) may be a pandemic sickness, that has already caused thousands of casualties and infected many countless individuals worldwide. Whereas most of the individuals infected with the COVID-19 intimate with delicate to moderate respiratory disease, some developed deadly respiratory illness. Any technological tool sanctioning screening of the COVID-19 infection with high accuracy will be crucially useful to the attention professionals. The usage of chest CT scan pictures for classifying and diagnosing COVID-19 respiratory illness has shown an excellent range of exactness and accuracy quite the other tool that lessens the number of deaths within the severe cases. This paper presents a proposed model of convolutional neural network (CNN) with a large multi-national dataset that is able to classify covid-19 pneumonia; lung cancer and the normal lung tissues from chest computed tomography (CT) scans with a classification accuracy of 94.05%.
