Combining Fine- and Coarse-Grained Classifiers for Diabetic Retinopathy Detection
, 2020 Visual artefacts of early diabetic retinopathy in retinal fundus images are usually small in size, inconspicuous, and scattered all over retina. Detecting diabetic retinopathy requires physicians to look at the whole image and fixate on some specific ...
