Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) can lead to death or disability, which requires immediate action from radiologists. Due to the heavy workload, less experienced staff, and the complexity of subtle hemorrhages, a more intelligent and automated system is necessary to detect ICH. In literature, many artificial-intelligence-based methods are proposed. However, they are less accurate for ICH detection and subtype classification. Therefore, in this paper, we present a new methodology to improve the detection and subtype classification of ICH based on two parallel paths and a boosting technique. The first path employs the architecture of ResNet101-V2 to extract potential features from windowed slices, whereas Inception-V4 captures significant spatial information in the second path. Afterwards, the detection and subtype classification of ICH is performed by the light gradient boosting machine (LGBM) using the outputs of ResNet101-V2 and Inception-V4. Thus, the combined solution, known as ResNet101-V2, Inception-V4, and LGBM (Res-Inc-LGBM), is trained and tested over the brain computed tomography (CT) scans of CQ500 and Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) datasets. The experimental results state that the proposed solution efficiently obtains 97.7% accuracy, 96.5% sensitivity, and 97.4% F1 score using the RSNA dataset. Moreover, the proposed Res-Inc-LGBM outperforms the standard benchmarks for the detection and subtype classification of ICH regarding the accuracy, sensitivity, and F1 score. The results prove the significance of the proposed solution for its real-time application.
