Abstract

This study employs nine distinct deep learning models to categorize 12,444 blood cell images and automatically extract from them relevant information with an accuracy that is beyond that achievable with traditional techniques. The work is intended to improve current methods for the assessment of human health through measurement of the distribution of four types of blood cells, namely, eosinophils, neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes, known for their relationship with human body damage, inflammatory regions, and organ illnesses, in particular, and with the health of the immune system and other hazards, such as cardiovascular disease or infections, more in general. The results of the experiments show that the deep learning models can automatically extract features from the blood cell images and properly classify them with an accuracy of 98%, 97%, and 89%, respectively, with regard to the training, verification, and testing of the corresponding datasets.
