Exploiting transfer learning methods to try and classify X-ray chest Images into normal(healthy) vs abnormal(sick)

we will see the performance of transfer learning using the official pre-trained model offered by Google (INCEPTION-RESNET-V2 MODEL), which can be found in TensorFlow’s model library

In this little/first try we will be retraining the last layer of inception v2 of google to classify the images using adam optimizer and learning rate decay

python 3 tensorflow = 1.0.1 matplotlib lxml

model used : INCEPTION-RESNET-V2

learning rate : 0.0001 with a decay factor of 0.7 each 2 epochs

batch size : 16

number of epochs : 30

Streaming Accuracy : 68.70 %

Recall : coming soon

Precision : coming soon

In the data folder (cd data/) :

1 - Use python get_data.py to download scrapped image data from openi.nlm.nih.gov. It has a large base of Xray,MRI, CT scan images publically available.Specifically Chest Xray Images have been scraped.The images will be downloaded and saved in images/ and the labels in data_new.json (it might take a while)

Some info about the dataset :

  Total number of Images : 7469
  The classes with most occurence in the dataset:

  		 ('normal', 2696)
  		 ('No Indexing', 172)
  		 ('Lung/hypoinflation', 88)
  		 ('Thoracic Vertebrae/degenerative/mild', 55)
  		 ('Thoracic Vertebrae/degenerative', 44)
  		 ('Spine/degenerative/mild', 36)
  		 ('Spine/degenerative', 35)
  		 ('Spondylosis/thoracic vertebrae', 33)
  		 ('Granulomatous Disease', 32)
  		 ('Cardiomegaly/mild', 32)

2 - Use python gen_data.py to sort labels into Normal/Abnormal classes, generate full path to coresponding Images and write them to data.txt

number of normal chest Images(healthy people) 2696:
number of abnormal chest Images(sick people) 4773:

3 - Use python convert_to_tf_records.py to generate tf records of the data.

Download the Pre-trained inception model in here and unzip it in ckpt/ folder.

Use python train.py to start the training !(trained model will be saved in logs/)

Use python evaluate.py to run evaluation using the model saved in logs/(metric : streaming accuracy over all mini batches)
