A little confusion #42

Closed ResonWang closed 4 years ago

ResonWang commented 4 years ago

It's said that Covid-19 belongs to one kind of viral pneumonia. So I am a little confused about the difference between class Covid-19 and class pneumonia in the classification. It seems that the paper hasn't talk about it.

Dear Tony, Thanks for your interest. I think the paper does talk about it, I'm quoting from the abstract below:

First, we gather a lung ultrasound (POCUS) dataset consisting of (currently) 1103 images 
(654 COVID-19, 277 bacterial pneumonia and 172 healthy controls), sampled from 64 videos.

Hence, pneumonia is short for forms of bacterial pneumonia. However, the dataset grew significantly since we put that manuscript out. Please follow the READMEs of this repo, especially the one on data\. The dataset sizes are much bigger now than what we report in the initial manuscript. Plus, we now also have a couple of videos from non-covid-viral-pneumonia, so if you want, you can include a 4-th class into your model.
