• Abstract: In recent years, people from all over the world are suffering from one of the most severe diseases in history, known as Coronavirus disease 2019, COVID-19 for short. When the virus reaches the lungs, it has a higher probability to cause lung pneumonia and sepsis. X-ray image is a powerful tool in identifying the typical features of the infection for COVID-19 patients. The radiologists and pathologists observe that ground-glass opacity appears in the chest X-ray for infected patient \cite{cozzi2021ground}, and it could be used as one of the criteria during the diagnosis process. In the past few years, deep learning has proven to be one of the most powerful methods in the field of image classification. Due to significant differences in Chest X-Ray between normal and infected people \cite{rousan2020chest}, deep models could be used to identify the presence of the disease given a patient's Chest X-Ray. Many deep models are complex, and it evolves with lots of input parameters. Designers sometimes struggle with the tuning process for deep models, especially when they build up the model from scratch. Genetic Algorithm, inspired by the biological evolution process, plays a key role in solving such complex problems. In this paper, I proposed a genetic-based approach to optimize the Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) for the Chest X-Ray classification task.

  We present a benchmark study of the long-tailed learning problem in the specific domain of thorax diseases on chest X-rays. We focus on learning from naturally distributed chest X-ray data, optimizing classification accuracy over not only the common "head" classes, but also the rare yet critical "tail" classes. The benchmark consists of two chest X-ray datasets for 19- and 20-way thorax disease classification, containing classes with as many as 53,000 and as few as 7 labeled training images.
