Overview

Demonstrates automated tuberculosis detection in chest X-ray images, suggesting improved clinical decision support.

Key Points

The aim is to enhance tuberculosis diagnosis accuracy using a hybrid deep learning framework for chest X-ray images.
Developed a hybrid model combining VGG16, ResNet50, and DenseNet121 CNNs.
Trained on three datasets: Montgomery County, Shenzhen, and a third TB-positive dataset.
Evaluated model performance using metrics like accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score.
Achieved 97.40% accuracy in tuberculosis detection.
Reported precision, recall, and F1-score of 0.96 each.
Outperformed individual models: VGG16 (93.00%), ResNet50 (95.90%), and DenseNet121 (96.30%).
