“…Figure 3 presents the assisted classification of using the VGG19 of lung CT images (dimension 224 × 224 × 3 pixels) using the DF using the SoftMax classifier, and then the performance of VGG19 is validated with VGG16, ResNet18, ResNet50 and AlexNet (images with dimension of 227 × 227 × 3 pixels) [ 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 ] and the performance is compared and validated. The performance of the implemented VGG19 is validated using DF, concatenated DF + HCF and well-established binary classifiers existing in the literature [ 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 ].…”
