Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll take pretrained VGG16 and ResNet models from the Python Keras library and train them further upon your medical image dataset of X-ray and CT scans. This transfer learning is a highly effective technique for quickly generating reliable machine learning models when you only have a small data set. You’ll experiment with the Keras loss functions to determine which are best for COVID image classification, and check your training and prediction times as a critical parameter of real-world applications.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.

project author

Anuradha Kar
Anuradha Kar is a Postdoctoral researcher at École normale supérieure de Lyon, and works in collaboration with the research institutes INRAE and INRIA in France. Her current research is on the application of deep learning algorithms for deriving quantitative information from microscopy image datasets. This is used by biologists to analyze cellular developmental processes in plants and animals. She has a PhD in electrical engineering from the National University of Ireland, Galway. Her research centers on vision sensors, artificial intelligence and computer vision. She has published on deep learning, human-computer interactions and sensor evaluation techniques.
