Abstract: Currently, one amongst most primary health problems and an enormously transmittable disease is Tuberculosis (TB). This disease spreads all over the world and is commonly developed by Mycobacterium TB (MTB). TB causes fatality if it is not identified at earlier stages. Thus, accurate and effectual model is necessary for detecting infection level of TB. Here, Xception Taylor Cascade Neuro Network (Xception T-Cascade NNet) is presented for infection level identification of TB utilizing sputum images. Firstly, input sputum image acquired from certain database is pre-processed by denoising and histogram equalization utilizing contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE). SegNet is utilized for bacilli segmentation and it is tuned by White Shark Optimizer (WSO). Thereafter, suitable features such as designed discrete cosine transform (DCT) with angled local directional pattern (ALDP), statistical features, shape features and gray-level co-occurrence model (GLCM) texture features are extracted for further processing. Lastly, infection level identification of TB is conducted by Xception T-Cascade NNet. However, Xception T-Cascade NNet is an integration of Xception with Cascade Neuro-Fuzzy Network (NFN) by Taylor concept. In addition, Xception T-Cascade NNet achieved 88.5% of accuracy, 90.8% of true negative rate (TNR) and 89.4% of true positive rate (TPR) and as well as minimal false negative rate (FNR) of 0.092 and false positive rate (FPR) of 0.106.
