AMDNet23: A combined deep Contour-based Convolutional Neural Network and Long Short Term Memory system to diagnose Age-related Macular Degeneration
share
In light of the expanding population, an automated framework of disease detection can assist doctors in the diagnosis of ocular diseases, yields accurate, stable, rapid outcomes, and improves the success rate of early detection. The work initially intended the enhancing the quality of fundus images by employing an adaptive contrast enhancement algorithm (CLAHE) and Gamma correction. In the preprocessing techniques, CLAHE elevates the local contrast of the fundus image and gamma correction increases the intensity of relevant features. This study operates on a AMDNet23 system of deep learning that combined the neural networks made up of convolutions (CNN) and short-term and long-term memory (LSTM) to automatically detect aged macular degeneration (AMD) disease from fundus ophthalmology. In this mechanism, CNN is utilized for extracting features and LSTM is utilized to detect the extracted features. The dataset of this research is collected from multiple sources and afterward applied quality assessment techniques, 2000 experimental fundus images encompass four distinct classes equitably. The proposed hybrid deep AMDNet23 model demonstrates to detection of AMD ocular disease and the experimental result achieved an accuracy 96.50 F1-score 96.49.0 imagery datasets to diagnose AMD ocular disease and findings effectively potential of our method.
