Model Development

CNN and transfer learning benchmark

The project compares baseline CNN modeling with transfer learning architectures such as ResNet and DenseNet. This demonstrates practical model selection and evaluation for computer vision workflows.

Deployment / Inference

Interactive Streamlit demo

The inference layer allows users to test example X-ray images, view model confidence and demonstrate how the model behaves in a controlled presentation environment.

Explainability

Grad-CAM turns prediction into visual evidence

Prediction

The system produces a classification result with confidence information.

Visual Attention

Grad-CAM highlights image regions that contributed to the model decision.

Human Review

The output is presented as decision support and explainability evidence, not as a standalone clinical diagnosis.

Grad-CAM helps communicate which image areas influenced the model decision. This makes the demo more transparent and shows awareness of responsible AI principles in sensitive domains.

Business / Clinical Value
