摘要
This work extends PneumoCAD, a Computer-Aided Diagnosis system for detecting pneumonia in infants using radiographic images [1], with the aim of improving the system's accuracy and robustness. We implement and compare three contemporary machine learning classifiers, namely: Naive Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Support Vector Machines (SVM). Results of our experiments demonstrate that the SVM classifier produces the best overall results.
