Special: Battle Against Novel CoronavirusNorthwestern University (NU) researchers have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) platform, called DeepCOVID-XR, to detect COVID-19 by analyzing X-ray images of the lungs.
The machine-learning algorithm has outperformed a team of specialized thoracic radiologists by spotting COVID-19 in X-rays about 10 times faster and 1-6 percent more accurately.
To develop, train and test the new algorithm, the researchers used 17,002 chest X-ray images. Of those…
