Human lungs are more prone to the diseases
and need to be identified at the early stages so that
appropriate treatment can be provided and minimize the
complications. The utility of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
in predicting the pathologies in chest X-ray images was
studied. Two different neural network models were
applied on the National Institute of Health (NIH) chest
X-ray image datasets. These models were Visual
Geometry Group (VGG) model and Sequential model
with dense layers. Images were converted in to arrays
and are fed into each of these models which predicted
the pathologies present in the chest X-ray images. The
accuracy obtained using VGG model was 65.6% and the
accuracy of sequential model was 73%. Although
sequential model is more accurate than VGG model,
there is a need for further fine tuning the models for
better accuracy
