Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Computer Vision

Background:

  • Covid-19 diagnosis faces challenges in accessibility and speed.
  • Medical imaging, particularly chest X-rays (CXR), offers a widely available diagnostic avenue.
  • Supervised learning for image analysis requires extensive training data, which can be a limitation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a rapid and accurate AI-based diagnostic tool for Covid-19 detection using chest X-ray images.
  • To address the limitations of data scarcity and computational inefficiency in existing deep learning models for medical image analysis.
  • To create synthetic and augmented data for training AI models, improving their generalization capabilities.

Main Methods:

  • A novel Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) architecture (Swish activated, Instance and Batch normalized Residual U-Net GAN) was developed for synthetic data generation.
