Deteksi Covid-19 pada Citra Sinar-X Dada Menggunakan Deep Learning yang Efisien by Novanto Yudistira, Agus Wahyu Widodo, Bayu Rahayudi

“…We used 1125 x-ray images and achieved an accuracy of 86.93% with a number of model parameters of 18.55 times less than EfficientNet and 22.36 times less than ResNet50 to detect 3 categories namely Covid-19, Pneumonia, and normal through the 5-fold cross validation. The memory required by each CNN architecture to perform one detection is linearly related to the number of parameters where ShuffleNet only requires GPU memory of 0.646 GB or 0.43 times that of ResNet50, 0.2 times of EfficientNet, and 0.53 times of FullConv. …”
