COVID19 Detection From X-Ray Images

Automatic detection of COVID-19 from X-ray images of lungs using OpenCV, Keras and Tensorflow in Deep Learning.

The problem COVID19 Detection From X-Ray Images solves

This project helps a patient to get checked for the presence of COVID-19 disease in very less time. Currently, it takes around 1-2 hours to get the test results and test kits are limited by number.

Challenges we ran into

The main challenge was getting the dataset. Being a new disease, getting lung X-Ray images was very difficult, but we could find a publicly available dataset for our purpose. Also, another challenge was to use the right baseline model. We experimented with VGG16, VGG19, ResNet50, etc and found VGG16 most promising according to our needs and size of the dataset, thus getting maximum accuracy.
