Automated eye disease classification method from anterior eye image using anatomical structure focused image classification technique [PDF]
Proceedings of SPIE Medical Imaging 2020: Computer-Aided
Diagnosis, Vol.11314, 1131446, 2020 This paper presents an automated classification method of infective and non-infective diseases from anterior eye images. Treatments for cases of infective and non-infective diseases are different. Distinguishing them from anterior eye images is important to decide a treatment plan. Ophthalmologists distinguish them empirically.
