ABSTRACT
In this research, a novel real time approach has been proposed for detection and analysis of Covid19 using chest X-ray images based on a non-iterative deterministic classifier, kernel extreme learning machine (KELM), and a pretrained network ResNet50. The information extraction capability of deep learning and non-iterative deterministic training nature of KELM has been incorporated in the proposed novel fusion model. The binary classification is carried out with a non-iterative deterministic learning based classifier, KELM. Our proposed approach is able to minimize the average testing error up to 2.76 on first dataset, and up to 0.79 on the second one, demonstrating its effectiveness after experimental confirmation. A comparative analysis of the approach with other existing state-of-the-art methods is also presented in this research and the classification performance confirm the advantages and superiority of our novel approach called RES-KELM algorithm.
