Optimizing Multi Neural Network Weights for COVID-19 Detection Using Enhanced Artificial Ecosystem Algorithm
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The role of machine learning in medical research, particularly in addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, has proven to be significant.The current study delineates the design and refinement of an artificial intelligence (AI) framework tailored to differentiate COVID-19 from Pneumonia utilizing X-ray scans in synergy with textual clinical data.The focal point of this research is the amalgamation of diverse neural networks and the exploration of the impact of metaheuristic algorithms on optimizing these networks' weights.The proposed framework uniquely incorporates a lung segmentation process using a pre-trained ResNet34 model, generating a mask for each lung to mitigate the influence of potential extraneous features.The dataset comprised 579 segmented X-ray images (Anteroposterior and Posteroanterior views) of COVID-19 and Pneumonia patients, supplemented with each patient's textual medical data, including age and gender.An enhancement in accuracy from 94.32% to 97.85% was observed with the implementation of weight optimization in the proposed framework.The efficacy of the model in detecting COVID-19 was further ascertained through a comprehensive comparison with various architectures cited in the existing literature.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
