Abstrakt: The recent advancements under the umbrella of artificial intelligence (AI) open opportunities to tackle complex problems related to image analysis. Recently, the proliferation of COVID-19 brought multiple challenges to medical practitioners, such as precise analysis and classification of COVID-19 cases. Deep learning (DL) and transfer learning (TL) techniques appear to be attractive solutions. To provide the precise classification of COVID-19 cases, this article presents a customized Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) and pre-trained TL model approach. Our pipeline accommodated several popular pre-trained TL models, namely DenseNet121, ResNet50, InceptionV3, EfficientNetB0, and VGG16, to classify COVID-19 positive and negative cases. We evaluated and compared the performance of these models with a wide range of measures, including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score for classifying COVID-19 cases based on chest X-rays. The results demonstrate that our customized DCNN model performed well with randomly assigned weights, achieving 98.5% recall and 97.0% accuracy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
