FINAL YEAR PROJECT

Pneumonia detection using Machine Learning

GROUP MEMBERS :
Sanjay Yadav
Shekhar Dwivedi
Sushmita Mentor : Ms. Aishwarya Gupta Mam
Why This Project:

● With 43 million new cases every year, India is in Top 5 countries with Highest Number
of Deaths due to Pneumonia Globally.

● Conventional method of detection of PNEUMONIA like Blood Test, Bronchoscopy and

CT Scan are both expensive and time consuming.

● While Waiting for Test results the Condition of Patient might Worsen and He might
Transmit it to other healthy persons as It is a contagious disease

● Using Chest X-Ray for Pneumonia detection can be made very efficient with the help of
Machine Learning and is very cost effective as the Chest X-Rays usually cost around
150 Rs
Literature Survey:
● ChexNet is a paper published by Stanford ML Group in 2017
● It uses the Chest Xray To determine if patient has Pneumonia using Machine
Learning

Limitations:

● The Model was not Released for public use

● No way to access the model for normal persons or hospitals
● No APIs

# In current Scenario there is no working ML solution is available for this problem

Our Idea:
● To develop an Accurate model to Identify Pneumonia Cases using Chest X-
ray Images
● Make the Model easily accessible for public and medical practitioners
● Use the Cloud based Services or Mobile Devices to deploy the model and
make predictions on the spot
● Since Covid-19 the Hospitals and Doctors are Busy in the Corona Cases, We
would like to develop a self diagnostic system where people can check
themselves using the resources available for them Like X-rays and Mobile
Devices

TOPIC: Pneumonia detection using Machine Learning

Conventional method of detection of PNEUMONIA are

1) Blood Test
2) X ray
3) Pulse oximetry
4) A sputum test

Others optional test are

5) arterial blood gas test
6) bronchoscopy
7) a CT scan

So many test leads to huge money burden and also the result of the test may take from few days to few
weeks which may worsen the condition of the patient

What can be done

An early detection will leads to not only detect the disease but also leads to better
treatment on time

Motive behind the project

1)This project will help to detect the disease on time with few expenses and better treatment of the
person

2) cost effective

Approch
We will use machine learning to detect the disease by inserting the X ray images
ooof the patient and hence easily affordale and handy to carry out the test and
yield the result much earlier an with better accuracy
