Project Creation: Part One

In this lesson, we will be starting with our first project on CNN.

Introduction to the project

Welcome to your first project. In this project, we are going to build a deep learning model that will detect, from the X-ray tests, of a person whether they are corona positive. COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the coronavirus discovered in 2019.

This project aims to increase the accuracy of the detection of this virus using sophisticated deep learning.

Please don’t misuse this in any manner. We are building this project only for learning purposes. You can take the project to the next level for your research, but the accuracy of these types of systems needs to be very high.

Download the dataset

We have taken the dataset from a variety of sources. The first one is taken from the corona positive X-rays and the second one is taken from the normal X-rays. The corona dataset is being updated regularly, and, at the time of this course being written, there were around 140+ corona positive images and around 140+ normal images of X-rays.

You need to combine your dataset from these two sources:
