| Abstract | ||
| Pneumonia is a disease of the lungs caused by a bacterial infection. Early diagnosis is critical to the outcome of treatment. In general, a trained radiologist may identify the condition using chest X-ray pictures. Diagnoses might be subjective for a variety of reasons, including the appearance of disease, which may be ambiguous in chest X ray pictures or mistaken with other conditions. As a result, computer-aided diagnostic systems are required to advise practitioners. In this study, we employed two well-known convolutional neural network models, Xception and VGG16, and a custom CNN model to diagnose pneumonia. We employed transfer learning and fine-tuning throughout the training step. The test findings indicated that the custom CNN model outperformed VGG16 network and the Xception model with 93% accuracy. | ||
