Pneumonia Detection Using VGG16

Abstract

Pneumoniaisaperilousirresistible sickness influencing one or the two lungs in peoplenormally brought about by microbes called Streptococcus pneumoniae. One of every threepassing’sinIndiaiscausedbecauseofpneumonia,asannouncedbyWorldHealthOrganization (WHO). Chest X-Rays which are utilized to diagnose pneumonia, need masterradiotherapistsforevaluation.Inthisway,developingaprogrammedframeworkforrecognizing pneumonia would be gainful for treating the sickness immediately, especially infar off regions. The aim of this study is to improve on the pneumonia discovery measure forspecialists as well as for beginners. This project proposes a deep learning model trained fromscratch to classify and recognize the presence of pneumonia from a collection of chest X-raypictures.The proposed model isVGG16 which is broadlyutilized transfer learning model.
