TBDLNet: a network for classifying multidrug-resistant and drug-sensitive tuberculosis [PDF]
Engineering Reports (2023), 2023This paper proposes applying a novel deep-learning model, TBDLNet, to recognize CT images to classify multidrug-resistant and drug-sensitive tuberculosis automatically. The pre-trained ResNet50 is selected to extract features. Three randomized neural networks are used to alleviate the overfitting problem.
