Abstract
Deep learning has emerged as a promising technique for a variety of elements of infectious disease monitoring and detection, including
. We built a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) model to assess the generalizability of the deep learning model using a publicly accessible tuberculosis dataset. This study was able to reliably detect tuberculosis (TB) from chest X-ray images by utilizing image preprocessing, data augmentation, and deep learning classification techniques. Four distinct deep CNNs (Xception, InceptionV3, InceptionResNetV2, and MobileNetV2) were trained, validated, and evaluated for the classification of
and nontuberculosis cases using transfer learning from their pretrained starting weights. With an F1-score of 99 percent, InceptionResNetV2 had the highest accuracy. This research is more accurate than earlier published work. Additionally, it outperforms all other models in terms of reliability. The suggested approach, with its state-of-the-art performance, may be helpful for computer-assisted rapid TB detection.
