In this paper, we propose an optimal deep learning network architecture for main object location detection through weak supervised learning. The proposed network adds convolution blocks for improving the localization accuracy of the main object through weakly-supervised learning. The additional deep learning network consists of five additional blocks that add a composite product layer based on VGG-16. And the proposed network was trained by the method of weakly-supervised learning that does not require real location information for objects. In addition, Grad-CAM to compensate for the weakness of GAP in CAM, which is one of weak supervised learning methods, was used. The proposed network was tested through the CUB-200-2011 data set, we could obtain 50.13% in top-1 localization error. Also, the proposed network shows higher accuracy in detecting the main object than the existing method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There are dozens of different types of lesions that can be diagnosed through chest X-ray images, including Atelectasis, Cardiomegaly, Mass, Pneumothorax, and Effusion. Computed tomography(CT) test is generally necessary to determine the exact diagnosis and location and size of thoracic lesions, however computed tomography has disadvantages such as expensive cost and a lot of radiation exposure. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a deep learning algorithm for judging the presence or absence of lesions in chest X-ray images as the primary screening tool for the diagnosis of thoracic lesions. The proposed algorithm was designed by comparing various configuration methods to optimize the judgment of presence of lesions from chest X-ray. As a result, the evaluation rate of lesion presence of the proposed algorithm is about 1% better than the existing algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
