Viral Pneumonia Screening on Chest X-ray Images Using Confidence-Aware Anomaly Detection [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Cluster of viral pneumonia occurrences during a short period of time may be a harbinger of an outbreak or pandemic, like SARS, MERS, and recent COVID-19. Rapid and accurate detection of viral pneumonia using chest X-ray can be significantly useful in large-scale screening and epidemic prevention, particularly when other chest imaging modalities are ...
