Title
Automatic method for classifying COVID-19 patients based on chest X-ray images, using deep features and PSO-optimized XGBoost
Abstract
•A method to classify patients in COVID-19 or non-COVID-19 based on Chest X-Rays.•We introduce a deep features extraction with XGBoost optimized by PSO.•The method was developed and tested on two public databases.•We evaluate our work in 1547 CXR images.•The method achieved an accuracy of 98.71%, precision of 98.89%, recall of 99.63%, and F1-score of 99.25%.
