Pneumonia is a common lung disease that is the leading cause of death worldwide. It primarily affects children, accounting for 18% of all deaths in children under the age of five, the elderly, and patients with other diseases. There is a variety of imaging diagnosis techniques available today. While many of them are becoming more accurate, chest radiographs are still the most common method for detecting pulmonary infections due to cost and speed. A convolutional neural network (CNN) model has been developed to classify chest X‐rays in JPEG format into normal, bacterial pneumonia, and viral pneumonia. The model was trained using data from an open Kaggle database. The data augmentation technique was used to improve the model’s performance. A web application built with NextJS and hosted on AWS has also been designed. The model that was optimized using the data augmentation technique had …
