Comparing Local Binary Pattern and Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix for Feature Extraction in Diabetic Retinopathy Classification

Abstract

Diabetic retinopathy, a condition characterized by retinal damage and vision loss, is a prevalent complication of diabetes arising from elevated blood sugar levels. With a growing number of individuals affected, efficient and accurate diagnosis is crucial. This study aims to implement and compare the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) and Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) feature extraction techniques, which have demonstrated success in prior research. The comparison will provide a comprehensive under- standing of the image features, extract relevant data, and improve the performance of the image analysis pipeline for diabetic retinopathy classification. The result showed that from three scenarios the best accuracy provided by Support Vector Machine with the accuracy score between 73% until 74%, however, other algorithm have little difference which the result on 73%.
