Transfer-Ensemble Learning based Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for Diabetic Retinopathy Classification [PDF]
This article aims to classify diabetic retinopathy (DR) disease into five different classes using an ensemble approach based on two popular pre-trained convolutional neural networks: VGG16 and Inception V3. The proposed model aims to leverage the strengths of the two individual nets to enhance the classification performance for diabetic retinopathy ...
