Abstract

It is no secret to all that the corona pandemic has caused a decline in all aspects of the world. Therefore, offering an accurate automatic diagnostic system is very important. This paper proposed an accurate COVID-19 system by testing various deep learning models for x-ray/computed tomography (CT) medical images. A deep preprocessing procedure was done with two filters and segmentation to increase classification results. According to the results obtained, 99.94% of accuracy, 98.70% of sensitivity, and 100% of specificity scores were obtained by the Xception model in the x-ray dataset and the InceptionV3 model for CT scan images. The compared results have demonstrated that the proposed model is proven to be more successful than the deep learning algorithms in previous studies. Moreover, it has the ability to automatically notify the examination results to the patients, the health authority, and the community after taking any x-ray or CT images.
