A Review: Diagnosis of Diabetic Retinopathy by using Machine Learning & Deep Learning Techniques

This study focuses to detect all the stages of diabetic retinopathy (DR) using end-to-end deep ensemble networks. One of the most prominent and significant micro-vascular ramifications of diabetes mellitus involves diabetic retinopathy (DR). If the treatment is not received for this degenerative condition on time, it damages the retina, visual impairment and blindness may result. It impacts on the affected persons can be lessened by having a thorough understanding of the pathophysiology, on receiving a quick diagnosis, and using efficient management techniques. The complex pathophysiology of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is reviewed in this abstract, which includes a range of biochemical, molecular, and hemodynamic mechanisms brought on by persistent hyperglycaemia. Chronic hyperglycaemia contributes to the onset and progression of diabetic disease DR by causing microvascular changes, oxidative stress, inflammation, and neurodegeneration. Many hand-on engineering and end-to-end learning-based approaches are used to detect the DR using Kaggle dataset. The detection of the mild stage is important for the early control of this fatal disease. This study focuses to detect all the stages of DR using end-to-end deep ensemble networks. The results show that the proposed approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods. To get the finest mass image dataset to train models, it takes Pre-processing steps, like data augmentation will increase the number of training examples, and data normalization will precisely predict classification. So, they could train the latest CNNs model (AlexNet, VggNet, GoogleNet and ResNet) to recognize the slight differences between the image classes for DR Detection. Transfer learning and hyper-parameter tuning methods are adopted and the experimental results have demonstrated the better accuracy than non-transferring learning methodology on DR image classification.

Pooling in convolutional neural networks for medical image analysis: a survey and an empirical study.

Convolutional neural networks (CNN) are widely used in computer vision and medical image analysis as the state-of-the-art technique. In CNN, pooling layers are included mainly for downsampling the feature maps by aggregating features from local regions. Pooling can help CNN to learn invariant features and reduce computational complexity. Although the max and the average pooling are the widely used ones, various other pooling techniques are also proposed for different purposes, which include techniques to reduce overfitting, to capture higher-order information such as correlation between features, to capture spatial or structural information, etc. As not all of these pooling techniques are well-explored for medical image analysis, this paper provides a comprehensive review of various pooling techniques proposed in the literature of computer vision and medical image analysis. In addition, an extensive set of experiments are conducted to compare a selected set of pooling techniques on two different medical image classification problems, namely HEp-2 cells and diabetic retinopathy image classification. Experiments suggest that the most appropriate pooling mechanism for a particular classification task is related to the scale of the class-specific features with respect to the image size. As this is the first work focusing on pooling techniques for the application of medical image analysis, we believe that this review and the comparative study will provide a guideline to the choice of pooling mechanisms for various medical image analysis tasks. In addition, by carefully choosing the pooling operations with the standard ResNet architecture, we show new state-of-the-art results on both HEp-2 cells and diabetic retinopathy image datasets.

A Novel Optimizer in Deep Neural Network for Diabetic Retinopathy Classification

In severe cases, diabetic retinopathy can lead to blindness. For decades, automatic classification of diabetic retinopathy images has been a challenge. Medical image processing has benefited from advances in deep learning systems. To enhance the accuracy of image classification driven by Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), balanced dataset is generated by data augmentation method followed by an optimized algorithm. Deep neural networks (DNN) are frequently optimized using gradient (GD) based techniques. Vanishing gradient is the main drawback of GD algorithms. In this paper, we suggest an innovative algorithm, to solve the above problem, Hypergradient Descent learning rate based Quasi hyperbolic (HDQH) gradient descent to optimize the weights and biases. The algorithms only use first order gradients, which reduces computation time and storage space requirements. The algorithms do not require more tuning of the learning rates as the learning rate tunes itself by means of gradients. We present empirical evaluation of our algorithm on two public retinal image datasets such as Messidor and DDR by using Resnet18 and Inception V3 architectures. The findings of the experiment show that the efficiency and accuracy of our algorithm outperforms the other cutting-edge algorithms. HDQHAdam shows the highest accuracy of 97.5 on Resnet18 and 95.7 on Inception V3 models respectively.

Adaptive machine learning classification for diabetic retinopathy

Diabetic retinopathy is the main cause of the blindness worldwide. However, the diabetic retinopathy is hard to be detected in the initial stages, and the procedure of diagnostic can be time-consuming even for experienced-experts. The segment based learning approach has shown the benefits over learning technique for detection of diabetic retinopathy: only the annotation of image level is required get the lesions and detection of diabetic retinopathy. Anyways, the performance of existing methods are limited by the utilization of handcrafted features. This paper proposes the segment based learning approach for detection of diabetic retinopathy, which mutually learns classifiers and features from the data and gets significant development on recognizing the images of diabetic retinopathy and their inside the lesions. Specifically, the pre-trained CNN is adapted to get the segment level DRE (Diabetic retinopathy Estimation) and then Integrating all segment level of (DRM) is utilized to make the classification of diabetic retinopathy images. Lastly, an end-to-end segment based learning approach to deal with the irregular lesions of diabetic retinopathy. For detection of the diabetic retinopathy images obtain area under of ROC curve is 0.963 on the Kaggle dataset and also obtains sensitivity and specificity 96.37% and 96.37% on the higher specificity and sensitivity that outperforms much better than existing model.

Deep neural network with moth search optimization algorithm based detection and classification of diabetic retinopathy images

In recent days, progressive rate of diabetic retinopathy (DR) becomes high and it is needed to develop an automated model for effective diagnosis of DR. This paper presents a new deep neural network with moth search optimization (DNN-MSO) algorithm based detection and classification model for DR images. The presented DNN-MSO algorithm involves different processes namely preprocessing, segmentation, feature extraction and classification. Initially, the contrast level of the DR images is improved using contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization model. After that, the preprocessed images are segmented using histogram approach. Then, Inception-ResNet V2 model is applied for feature extraction. Finally, extracted feature vectors are given to the DNN-MSO based classifier model to classify the different stages of DR. An extensive series of experiments were carried out and the results are validated on Messidor DR dataset. The obtained experimental outcome stated the superior characteristics of the DNN-MSO model by attaining a maximum accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of 99.12%, 97.91% and 99.47% respectively.

Modified Alexnet architecture for classification of diabetic retinopathy images

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is an illness occurring in the eye due to increase in blood glucose level. Among people in the age group of 70, 50% of deaths are attributed to diabetes. Early identification and appropriate treatment can reduce the loss of sight in many DR patients. Once the symptoms of DR are recognized, the severity of the disease should be evaluated for administering the right medication.
