DRDr II: Detecting the Severity Level of Diabetic Retinopathy Using Mask RCNN and Transfer Learning

Abstract: DRDr II is a hybrid of machine learning and deep learning worlds. It builds on the successes of its antecedent, namely, DRDr, that was trained to detect, locate, and create segmentation masks for two types of lesions (exudates and microaneurysms) that can be found in the eyes of the Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) patients; and uses the entire model as a solid feature extractor in the core of its pipeline to detect the severity level of the DR cases. We employ a big dataset with over 35 thousand fundus images collec… Show more

“…Table 2 presents the accuracy of the test scenarios with their associated confusion matrices. The results show that the test option with classes, bounding boxes, and masks yields the best result in comparison with others and we achieve slightly better performance than our previous result in DRDrII [4].…”

“…Following our work in DRDr [3] and DRDrII [4], our main goal here is to combine the previous networks and use the new model crafted by unifying them to 1. detect everything about lesions via a single model: lesions masks, bounding boxes, lesion types, along with the overall severity of the instances per image. 2. increase the accuracy of the severity classification that we achieved in DRDrII.…”
