An Annotation-free Restoration Network for Cataractous Fundus Images [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging,2022, 41(7), 1699-1710, 2022 Cataracts are the leading cause of vision loss worldwide. Restoration algorithms are developed to improve the readability of cataract fundus images in order to increase the certainty in diagnosis and treatment for cataract patients. Unfortunately, the requirement of annotation limits the application of these algorithms in clinics. This paper proposes a
