Investigations of severity level measurements for diabetic macular oedema using machine learning algorithms

ConclusionThe results of all of the classifiers are compared based on their accuracy. The classifier accuracies of the SVM, cascade neural network and partial least square are 98.33, 97.16 and 94.34%, respectively. While analysing DME using both images, OCT produced efficient output than fundus images. Information about the severity of the disease and the localization of the pathologies is very useful to the ophthalmologist for diagnosing disease and choosing the proper treatment for a patient to prevent vision loss.
