SqueezeViX-Net with SOAE: A Prevailing Deep Learning Framework for Accurate Pneumonia Classification using X-Ray and CT Imaging Modalities.

introductionPneumonia represents a dangerous respiratory illness that leads to severe health problems when proper diagnosis does not occur, followed by an increase in deaths, particularly among at-risk populations. Appropriate treatment requires the correct identification of pneumonia types in conjunction with swift and accurate diagnosis. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis paper presents the deep learning framework SqueezeViX-Net, specifically designed for pneumonia classification. The model benefits from a Self-Optimized Adaptive Enhancement (SOAE) method, which makes programmed changes to the dropout rate during the training process. The adaptive dropout adjustment mechanism leads to better model suitability and stability. The evaluation of SqueezeViX-Net is conducted through the analysis of extensive X-ray and CT image collections derived from publicly accessible Kaggle repositories.

resultsSqueezeViX-Net outperformed various established deep learning architectures, including DenseNet-121, ResNet-152V2, and EfficientNet-B7, when evaluated in terms of performance. The model demonstrated better results, as it performed with higher accuracy levels, surpassing both precision and recall metrics, as well as the F1-score metric. DISCUSSION: The validation process of this model was conducted using a range of pneumonia data sets, comprising both CT images and X-ray images, which demonstrated its ability to handle modality variations.

conclusionSqueezeViX-Net integrates SOAE technology to develop an advanced framework that enables the specific identification of pneumonia for clinical use. The model demonstrates excellent diagnostic potential for medical staff through its dynamic learning capabilities and high precision, contributing to improved patient treatment outcomes.
