Framework for COVID-19 segmentation and classification based on deep learning of computed tomography lung images

ABSTRACT: Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has affected millions of people worldwide and caused more than 6.3 million deaths (World Health Organization, June 2022). Increased attempts have been made to develop deep learning methods to diagnose COVID-19 based on computed tomography (CT) lung images. It is a challenge to reproduce and obtain the CT lung data, because it is not publicly available. This paper introduces a new generalized framework to segment and classify CT images and determine whether a patient is tested positive or negative for COVID-19 based on lung CT images. In this work, many different strategies are explored for the classification task. ResNet50 and VGG16 models are applied to classify CT lung images into COVID-19 positive or negative. Also, VGG16 and ReNet50 combined with U-
