Designing a Visual Geometry Group-based Triad-Channel Convolutional Neural Network for COVID-۱۹ Prediction

Using intelligent approaches in diagnosing the COVID-۱۹ disease based on machine learning algorithms (MLAs), as a joint work, has attracted the attention of pattern recognition and medicine experts. Before applying MLAs to the data extracted from infectious diseases, techniques such as RAT and RT-qPCR were used by data mining engineers to diagnose the contagious disease, whose weaknesses include the lack of test kits, the placement of the specialist and the patient pointed at a place and low accuracy. This study introduces a three-stage learning framework including a feature extractor by visual geometry group ۱۶ (VGG۱۶) model to solve the problems caused by the lack of samples, a three-channel convolution layer, and a classifier based on a three-layer neural network. The results showed that the Covid VGG۱۶ (CoVGG۱۶) has an accuracy of ۹۶.۳۷% and ۱۰۰%, precision of ۹۶.۵۲% and ۱۰۰%, and recall of ۹۶.۳۰% and ۱۰۰% for COVID-۱۹ prediction on the test sets of the two datasets (one type of CT-scan-based images and one type of X-ray-oriented ones gathered from Kaggle repositories).
