Global livelihoods are impacted by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) disease, which mostly affects the respiratory system and spreads via airborne transmission. The disease has spread to almost every nation and is still widespread worldwide. Early and reliable diagnosis is essential to prevent the development of this highly risky disease. The computer-aided diagnostic model facilitates medical practitioners in obtaining a quick and accurate diagnosis. To address these limitations, this study develops an optimized Xception convolutional neural network, called "XCovNet," for recognizing COVID-19 from point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) images. This model employs a stack of modules, each of which has a slew of feature extractors that enable it to learn richer representations with fewer parameters. The model identifies the presence of COVID-19 by classifying POCUS images containing Coronavirus samples, viral pneumonia samples, and healthy ultrasound images. We compare and evaluate th ....
