These 3 models were pre-trained in parallel to learn respective features to classify normal, pneumonia, and COVID-19 images. 8. Train (fine-tune) again the combined models using the Dataset_D, which can classify the normal, pneumonia, and COVID-19 images. In this manuscript, we present a COVID-multichannel transfer learning method for the classification of patients as normal, COVID-19, and pneumonia based on chest X-ray images. Besides, there are many artifacts in the chest X-ray images that may negatively affect the performance of classification tasks for feature-based deep learning models. In conclusion, we propose an ensemble learning strategy to improve the classification performance in deep learning-based COVID-19 screening for chest X-ray images. ./cache/cord-231762-ymz7z76i.txt ./txt/cord-231762-ymz7z76i.txt
