Prediction of Pneumonia and COVID-19 Using Deep Neural Networks [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Pneumonia, caused by bacteria and viruses, is a rapidly spreading viral infection with global implications. Prompt identification of infected individuals is crucial for containing its transmission. This study explores the potential of medical image analysis to address this challenge.
