ABSTRACT
This study introduces a Multi-Stage Automated Classification (MSTAC) system for COVID-19 chest X-ray (CXR) images, utilizing stacked Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models. Suspected COVID-19 patients often undergo CXR imaging, making it valuable for disease classification. The study collected CXR images from public datasets and aimed to differentiate between COVID-19, non-COVID-19, and healthy cases. MSTAC employs two classification stages the first distinguishes healthy from unhealthy cases, and the second further classifies COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 cases. Compared to a single CNN-Multiclass model, MSTAC demonstrated superior classification performance, achieving 97.30% accuracy and sensitivity. In contrast, the CNN-Multiclass model showed 94.76% accuracy and sensitivity. MSTAC's effectiveness is highlighted in its promising results over the CNN-Multiclass model, suggesting its potential to assist healthcare professionals in efficiently diagnosing COVID-19 cases. The system outperformed similar techniques, emphasizing its accuracy and efficiency in COVID-19 diagnosis. This research underscores MSTAC as a valuable tool in medical image analysis for enhanced disease classification.
