Abstract Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a dangerous condition that needs prompt diagnosis and treatment. Computed tomography (CT) images are employed in examination of individuals with ICH, which produces better results and cost‐effective than MRI. The existing convolutional neural network (CNN) models are unable to consider inter‐pixel dependency, which leads to false predictions while considering the input CT Images. In this study, we implemented an efficient model of a stack of bidirectional gated recurrent unit (Bi‐GRU) with a bidirectional long short‐term memory (Bi‐LSTM) based CNN to improve detection accuracy in the case of 2D slices. The proposed model holds slice‐wise information by accessing the properties of both Bi‐LSTM and Bi‐GRU modules in a single unit. As a result, the model attained a testing and training accuracy of 96.2% and 93.4%, respectively, with a test loss score of 0.126. In addition, the proposed model could outperform the state‐of‐the‐art CNN in identifying brain hemorrhages.
