Introduced in Choquet Integral and Coalition Game-based Ensemble of Deep Learning Models for COVID-19 Screening from Chest X-ray Images2021
##Authors of the Dataset:
##Overview The authors have created a new dataset known as Novel COVID-19 Chestxray Repository by the fusion of publicly available chest-xray image repositories. In creating this combined dataset, three different datasets obtained from the Github and Kaggle databases,created by the authors of other research studies in this field, were utilized.In our study,frontal and lateral chest X-ray images are used since this view of radiography is widely used by radiologist in clinical diagnosis.In the following section, authors have summarized how this dataset is created.
COVID-19 Radiography Database: The first release of this dataset reports 219 COVID-19,1345 viral pneumonia and 1341 normal radiographic chest X-ray images. This dataset was created by a team of researchers from Qatar University, Doha, Qatar, and the University of Dhaka, Bangladesh in collaboration with medical doctors and specialists from Pakistan and Malaysia.This database is regularly updated with the emergence of new cases of COVID-19 patients worldwide.Related Paper:https://arxiv.org/abs/2003.13145
COVID-Chestxray set:Joseph Paul Cohen and Paul Morrison and Lan Dao have created a public image repository on Github which consists both CT scans and digital chest x-rays.The data was collected mainly from retrospective cohorts of pediatric patients from Guangzhou Women and Children’s medical center.With the aid of metadata information provided along with the dataset,we were able to extract 521 COVID-19 positive,239 viral and bacterial pneumonias;which are of the following three broad categories:Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS),Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), and Acute Respiratory Distress syndrome (ARDS);and 218 normal radiographic chest X-ray images of varying image resolutions.

Actualmed COVID chestxray dataset:Actualmed-COVID-chestxray-dataset comprises of 12 COVID-19 positive and 80 normal radiographic chest x-ray images.
The combined dataset includes chest X-ray images of COVID-19,Pneumonia and Normal (healthy) classes, with a total of 752, 1584, and 1639 images respectively. Information about the Novel COVID-19 Chestxray Database and its parent image repositories is provided in Table 1.
