COVID-19 Detection from Chest X-rays

CNN based medical image classification project

A machine learning project focused on chest X-ray image classification with a convolutional neural network.

Abstract chest X-ray inspired visual for a CNN classification project.

Context

A machine learning project focused on chest X-ray image classification with a convolutional neural network.

Problem

The project explored a medical image classification workflow for separating COVID-19 chest X-ray images from normal cases.

What I built

I contributed to a CNN based model in Python for classifying chest X-ray images.

Technical approach

  • Used convolutional neural network techniques for medical image classification.
  • Worked with the practical workflow around model input, classification and output framing.
  • Kept the project description focused on the technical task.

What I learned

The project introduced practical constraints around medical image classification and responsible framing of model outputs.
