Deep Learning-based Lung Disease Prediction and Management System
Abstract
Lung diseases such as pneumonia and COVID-19 pose significant challenges to global healthcare, requiring early detection and effective management to improve patient results. This paper presents PulmoXpert, a deep learning-based web application for the automated prediction and management of lung diseases, using chest radiograph images (CXR). This system employs an ensemble of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) including VGG-16, DensNet-201 and EfficientNet-B0, to improve diagnostic accuracy [1],[3]. Advanceddata preprocessing tech- niques, such as histogram equalization, and Gaussian filtering to improve image quality, while data growth reduces class imbalance and enhance model generalization [4],[5].
The platform also has a healthcare chatbot operated by Nat- ural Language Processing (NLP), which allows real-time inter- action and personal health recommendations. Safe health record management and a user-friendly interface enables individuals to monitor their lung health. The proposed system is evaluated using standard performance metrics—including precision, accuracy, recall, and F1-score—demonstrating higher clinical reliability compared to individual deep learning models [6]. Future work involves expanding datasets, optimizing model for real-time clinical use and integrating additional imaging methods. This study highlights the ability of AI-managing solutions in detecting lung disease and bringing revolution in the patient’s care.
