Table 1: Data used to train and evaluate the pneumonia segmentation model.

Convolutional neural networks were trained on publically-available frontal chest radiographs and radiologist-defined bounding boxes demarcating areas of lung parenchyma associated with pneumonia. 22,000 radiographs were used for model training and the remaining were reserved to evaluate performance.
