Artificial intelligence is a pressing need that needs to be implemented thoroughly in the medical and educational fields. Imperatively, the diagnosis of Covid-19 has become crucial. In this study, we have designed a classification model based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and transfer learning. The COVID-19 chest X-ray images have been considered for the proposed methodology and are classified as COVID-19 positive and normal cases. The proposed shallow CNN Model achieved an accuracy of 96%, which is computationally very effective as only three Convolutional blocks are required. Then, the Xception architecture-based model is experimented with. The accuracy and loss of the proposed model have been evaluated using Adam and SGD optimizer. With the Adam Optimizer, Xception Net achieved the best classification accuracy of 99.94%. The precision, recall, and f\n                    <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n                    -score of 100% are achieved. The proposed model has outperformed the previous studies in the same domain, which highlights the model\u2019s state-of-the-art performance. Our study will be helpful for decision-makers and can help further minimize mortality and morbidity by effectively diagnosing the disease.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/14604582251363519","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,29]],"date-time":"2025-07-29T23:41:00Z","timestamp":1753832460000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Effective detection of Covid-19 using Xception net architecture: A technical investigation using X-ray images"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"31","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2592-8625","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kuljeet","family":"Singh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, School of Sciences, Christ University, Delhi-NCR, India"}]},{"given":"Surbhi","family":"Gupta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Punjab Agricultural University"}]},{"given":"Neeraj","family":"Mohan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"IK Gujral Punjab Technical University"}]},{"given":"Sourabh","family":"Shastri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Jammu"}]},{"given":"Sachin","family":"Kumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Jammu"}]},{"given":"Vibhakar","family":"Mansotra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Jammu"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1034-6334","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anurag","family":"Sinha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ICFAI University"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-6894-0087","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Saifullah","family":"Khalid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Principal Scientist, IBM Multi Activities Co Ltd"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_4_2_2","unstructured":"WHO coronavirus disease (COVID-19) dashboard [Internet].
