Research on chest x-ray image diagnosis of COVID-19 based on improved ResNet

Abstract

With the outbreak of covid-19 in 2020, timely and effective diagnosis and treatment of each covid-19 patient is particularly important. This paper combines the advantages of deep learning in image recognition, takes RESNET as the basic network framework, and carries out the experiment of improving the residual structure on this basis. It is tested on the open source new coronal chest radiograph data set, and the accuracy rate is 82.3%. Through a series of experiments, the training model has the advantages of good generalization, high accuracy and fast convergence. This paper proves the feasibility of the improved residual neural network in the diagnosis of covid-19.
