Acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) case surveillance is pivotal for the early detection of potential poliovirus, particularly in endemic countries such as Ethiopia. The community-based surveillance system implemented in Ethiopia has significantly improved AFP surveillance. However, challenges like delayed detection and disorganized communication persist. This work proposes a simple deep learning model for AFP surveillance, leveraging transfer learning on images collected from Ethiopia's community key informants through mobile phones. The transfer learning approach is implemented using a vision transformer model pretrained on the ImageNet dataset. The proposed model outperformed convolutional neural network-based deep learning models and vision transformer models trained from scratch, achieving superior accuracy, F1-score, precision, recall, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). It emerged as the optimal model, demonstrating the highest average AUC of 0.870 ± 0.01. Statistical analysis confirmed the significant superiority of the proposed model over alternative approaches (P |
