This work proposes a Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system for COVID-19 detection using an Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) optimized Artificial Neural Network (ANN), called ABCNN. The system segments suspicious regions in lung CT images, extracts texture and intensity features, and then uses an optimized ANN (with ABC-optimized input features, initial weights, and hidden nodes) to classify these regions as COVID-19 or non-COVID-19. Evaluated on 470 lung CT images, the ABCNN approach achieved a classification accuracy of 92.37%.
