This paper proposes a new model for COVID-19 screening, achieving 92.5% precision and 93.2% retrieval rate through experiments with lung ultrasound images and video datasets, which are considerably higher than existing CNN versions.
COVID-19 or related viral pandemics should be detected and managed without hesitation, since the virus spreads very rapidly. Often with insufficient human and electronic resources, patients need to be checked from stable patients using vital signs, radiographic photographs, or ultrasound images. Vital signs do not often offer the right outcome, and radiographic photos have a variety of other problems. Lung ultrasound (LUS) images can provide good screening without a lot of complications. This paper suggests a model of a convolutionary neural network (CNN) that has fewer learning parameters but can achieve strong accuracy. The model has five main blocks or layers of convolution connectors. A multi-layer fusion functionality of each block is proposed to improve the efficiency of the COVID-19 screening method utilizing the proposed model. Experiments are conducted using freely accessible LUS photographs and video datasets. The proposed fusion method has 92.5% precision, 91.8% accuracy, and 93.2% retrieval using the data collection. These efficiency metric levels are considerably higher than those used in any of the state-ofthe-art CNN versions.
