.Abstract
Pneumonia, a major respiratory disease, presents a significant global health challenge that requires precise diagnostic methods. Our system addresses this need by employing an expert fuzzy logic approach to integrate key clinical parameters such as body temperature, sputum characteristics and color, chest pain, shortness of breath, respiratory rate, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, and white blood cell count. These factors are synthesized into a robust decision-making model, effectively capturing the complexity of pneumonia diagnosis. To enhance diagnostic accuracy, our approach incorporates chest X-ray images processed through Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), using models like ResNet-50.
