Discriminative Feature Learning for Thorax Disease Classification in Chest X-ray Images

Project Code :TMPGAI92

Objective

In this paper, we propose to learn discriminative features with a two-branch architecture, named ConsultNet, to achieve those two purposes simultaneously. ConsultNet consists of two components.

Abstract

We focused on the thorax disease classification problem in chest X-ray (CXR) images. Different from the generic image classification task, a robust and stable CXR image analysis system should consider the unique characteristics of CXR images. In this paper, we propose to learn discriminative features with a denseNet-201 pre-trained neural network.

With the help of denseNet-201 one can classify the disease with more accurately because this pre-trained network can classify images into 1000 object categories, such as keyboard, mouse, pencil, and many animals. The network has an image input size of 224-by-224. With a few modifications we are applying this network to classify thorax disease.
