IoT-based COVID-19 detection using recalling-enhanced recurrent neural network optimized with golden eagle optimization algorithm

New potential for healthcare has been made possible by the development of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) with deep learning. This is applied for a broad range of applications. Normal medical devices together with sensors can gather important data when connected to the Internet, and deep learning uses this data to reveal symptoms and patterns and activate remote care. In recent years, the COVID-19 pandemic caused more mortality. Millions of people have been affected by this virus, and the number of infections is continually rising daily. To detect COVID-19, researchers attempt to utilize medical imaging and deep learning-based methods. Several methodologies were suggested utilizing chest X-ray (CXR) images for COVID-19 diagnosis. But these methodologies do not provide satisfactory accuracy. To overcome these drawbacks, a recalling-enhanced recurrent neural network optimized with golden eagle optimization algorithm (RERNN-GEO) is proposed in this paper. The intention of this work is to provide IoT-based deep learning method for the premature identification of COVID-19. This paradigm can be able to ease the workload of radiologists and medical specialists and also help with pandemic control. RERNN-GEO is a deep learning-based method; this is utilized in chest X-ray (CXR) images for COVID-19 diagnosis. Here, the Gray-Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM) window adaptive algorithm is used for extracting features to enable accurate diagnosis. By utilizing this algorithm, the proposed method attains better accuracy (33.84%, 28.93%, and 33.03%) and lower execution time (11.06%, 33.26%, and 23.33%) compared with the existing methods. This method can be capable of helping the clinician/radiologist to validate the initial assessment related to COVID-19.
