In this work we show how local phase CXR features based image enhancement improves the accuracy of CNN architectures for COVID-19 diagnosis. Our proposed method is designed for processing CXR images and consists of two main stages as illustrated in Figure 1 : 1-We enhance the CXR images (CXR(x, y)) using local phase-based image processing method in order to obtain a multi-feature CXR image (M F (x, y)), and 2-we classify CXR(x, y) by designing a deep learning approach where multi feature CXR images (M F (x, y)), together with original CXR data (CXR(x, y)), is used for improving the classification performance. Our proposed multi-feature CNN architectures were trained on a large dataset in terms of the number of COVID-19 CXR scans and have achieved improved classification accuracy across all classes. ./cache/cord-127759-wpqdtdjs.txt ./txt/cord-127759-wpqdtdjs.txt
