COVID-CXNet

license development preprint paper doi repo size

Detecting the novel coronavirus pneumonia in frontal chest X-ray images using transfer learning of CheXNet with a focus on Grad-CAM visualiztions.

Requirements

  • The code has been written in Python 3.9.x and requires TensorFlow v2.6.0
  • Install the dependencies using pip install -r requirements.txt

Data Collection

license license license

Chest x-ray images of patients with (mostly) PCR-positive COVID-19 are collected from different publicly available sources, such as SIRM. Please cite the associated paper if you are using CXR images. If this repo helped you with your research stuff, you can star it.

If you are merging COVID-19 CXR images into your own datasets, please attribute the authors in any publications (DOI: 10.6084/m9.figshare.12580328. You may include the version of the dataset found on the figshare webpage for reproducibility.

  • Download COVID-19 images as a single ZIP file: FigShare
  • Download the complete dataset from Kaggle: coming soon

There are currently 900 images with different sizes and formats, and the data will not be updated anymore. Normal CXRs are collected from different datasets, without a pediatric image bias. Note that a - sign at the end of image name indicates that CXR did not reveal any abnormalities, but the patient had CT/PCR-proven COVID-19 infection (probably patient is in early stages of disease progression). Besides, a p letter at the end of image name means that the image is taken from pediatric patient.
