Abstract

Medical images are valuable sources for disease diagnosis. Besides, advancements in deep learning in recent years have been supporting disease diagnosis methods based on images to obtain numerous achievements. However, deep learning algorithms still work as a black-box so it is difficult to interpret output from these algorithms. In this study, we propose a convolutional network architecture to classify Chest X-ray images as well as apply explanation approaches for trained models to support disease diagnosis. The proposed method provides insights in medical images to support Pneumonia diagnosis.
