A light CNN for efficient detection of COVID-19 from chest CT scans is proposed that is comparable with that of more complex CNN designs and 10 times better than more complex CNNs using pre-processing.

Abstract

Highlights • A light CNN for efficient detection of COVID-19 from chest CT scans is proposed.• The accuracy is comparable with that of more complex CNN designs.• The efficiency is 10 times better than more complex CNNs using pre-processing.• No GPU acceleration is required and can be executed on middle class computers.
