• Abstract: Recently, the outbreak of the novel Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has seriously endangered human health and life. Due to limited availability of test kits, the need for auxiliary diagnostic approach has increased. Recent research has shown radiography of COVID-19 patient, such as CT and X-ray, contains salient information about the COVID-19 virus and could be used as an alternative diagnosis method. Chest X-ray (CXR) due to its faster imaging time, wide availability, low cost and portability gains much attention and becomes very promising. Computational methods with high accuracy and robustness are required for rapid triaging of patients and aiding radiologist in the interpretation of the collected data. In this study, we design a novel multi-feature convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture for multi-class improved classification of COVID-19 from CXR images. CXR images are enhanced using a local phase-based image enhancement method. The enhanced images, together with the original CXR data, are used as an input to our proposed CNN architecture. Using ablation studies, we show the effectiveness of the enhanced images in improving the diagnostic accuracy. We provide quantitative evaluation on two datasets and qualitative results for visual inspection. Quantitative evaluation is performed on data consisting of 8,851 normal (healthy), 6,045 pneumonia, and 3,323 Covid-19 CXR scans. In Dataset-1, our model achieves 95.57\% average accuracy for a three classes classification, 99\% precision, recall, and F1-scores for COVID-19 cases. For Dataset-2, we have obtained 94.44\% average accuracy, and 95\% precision, recall, and F1-scores for detection of COVID-19. Our proposed multi-feature guided CNN achieves improved results compared to single-feature CNN proving the importance of the local phase-based CXR image enhancement (https://github.com/endiqq/Fus-CNNs_COVID-19).

  During the COVID-19 pandemic, the sheer volume of imaging performed in an emergency setting for COVID-19 diagnosis has resulted in a wide variability of clinical CXR acquisitions. The variable quality of clinically-acquired CXRs within publicly available datasets could have a profound effect on algorithm performance. We propose a simple and effective step-wise approach to pre-processing a COVID-19 chest X-ray dataset to remove undesired biases.
