Abstract

Deep learning-based image classification models have been established as a potent approach in the medical imaging domain as they are able to provide higher-level accuracy for disease diagnostic tasks. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures have shown great promise from among these in parsing radiological images like CT scans. The study highlights the overall performance analysis of several state-of-the-art deep learning models for pneumonia detection from CT scan images. The models evaluated include EfficientNetB0, EfficientNetV2B3, ResNet152V2, ResNet50V2, MobileNetV2, VGG16, ConvNeXtBase, DenseNet201, InceptionResNetV2, Xception. Among all, Dense- Net201 demonstrated superior performance, achieving a training accuracy of 99.75%, validation accuracy of 97.89%, precision, recall and F1-score of 95%, indicating its effectiveness and robustness in pneumonia detection. The outcomes of this research can help researchers and health practitioners in choosing the best models for different healthcare analysis models.
