Abstract

Covid-19 virus, which has emerged in the Republic of China in an undetermined cause, has affected the whole world quickly. It is important to detect positive cases early to prevent further spread of the outbreak. In the diagnostic phase, radiological images of the chest are determinative as well as the RT-PCR (Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction) test. It was classified with the ResNet50 model, which is a convolutional neural network architecture in Covid-19 detection using chest x-ray images. Chest X-Ray image analysis can be done and infected individuals can be identified thanks to artificial intelligence quickly. The experimental results are encouraging in terms of the use of computer-aided in the field of pathology. It can also be used in situations where the possibilities and RT-PCR tests are insufficient.
