Abstrakt: COVID-19 pandemic has a significant impact on the global health and daily lives of people living over the globe. Several initial tests are based on the detecting of the genetic material of the coronavirus, and they have a minimum detection rate with a time-consuming process. To overcome this issue, radiological images are recommended where chest X-rays (CXRs) are employed in the diagnostic process. This article introduces a new Multi-modal fusion of deep transfer learning (MMF-DTL) technique to classify COVID-19. The proposed MMF-DTL model involves three main processes, namely pre-processing, feature extraction, and classification. The MMF-DTL model uses three DL models namely VGG16, Inception v3, and ResNet 50 for feature extraction. Since a single modality would not be adequate to attain an effective detection rate, the integration of three approaches by the use of decision-based multimodal fusion increases the detection rate. So, a fusion of three DL models takes place to further improve the detection rate. Finally, a softmax classifier is employed for test images to a set of six different. A wide range of experimental result analyses is carried out on the Chest-X-Ray dataset. The proposed fusion model is found to be an effective tool for COVID-19 diagnosis using radiological images with the average sensy of 92.96%, specy of 98.54%, precn of 93.60%, accuy of 98.80%, Fscore of 93.26% and kappa of 91.86%.
