Artificial intelligence (AI) is expected to revolutionise the practice of medicine. Recent advancements in the field of deep learning have demonstrated success in variety of clinical tasks: detecting diabetic retinopathy from images, predicting hospital readmissions, aiding in the discovery of new drugs, etc. AI’s progress in medicine, however, has led to concerns regarding the potential effects of this technology on relationships of trust in clinical practice. In this paper, I will argue that there is merit to these concerns, since AI systems can be relied on, and are capable of reliability, but cannot be trusted, and are not capable of trustworthiness. Insofar as patients are required to rely on AI systems for their medical decision-making, there is potential for this to produce a deficit of trust in relationships in clinical practice.

Nowadays, artificial intelligence applications invade all of the fields including medical applications field. Deep learning, a subfield of artificial intelligence, in particular, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), have quickly become the first choice for processing and analyzing medical images due to its performance and effectiveness. Diabetic retinopathy is a vision loss disease that infects people with diabetes. This disease damages the blood vessels in the retina, hence, leads to blindness. Due to the sensitivity and complications involved in managing diabetics, designing and developing automated systems to detect and grade diabetic retinopathy is considered one of the recent research areas in the world of medical image applications. In this paper, the aspects of deep learning field related to diabetic retinopathy have been discussed. Various concepts in deep learning including traditional Artificial Neural Network (ANN) algorithm, ANN drawbacks in context of computer vision and image processing applications, and the best algorithm to overcome ANN drawbacks, CNN, have been elucidated along with the architecture. The paper also reviews an extensive summary of some works in the current research trend and future applications of the DL algorithms in medical image analysis for DR detection and grading. Furthermore, various research gabs related to building such automated systems for medical image analysis have been conferred – such as imbalance dataset which is considered one of the main performance issues that should be handled, the need of high performance computational resources to train deep and efficient models and others. This is quite beneficial for researchers working in the domain of medical image analysis to handle DR.

The aim of the study is to compare, assess the optimum tools as well as the techniques and advanced features focused on prediction of diabetes diagnosis based on machine learning tactics and diabetic retinopathy using Artificial Intelligence. The literature on data science, Artificial Intelligence (AI) contains important knowledge and understanding of AI entities such as Data science, machine learning, deep learning, Medical image processing, feature extraction, classification techniques, etc. Diabetes diagnosis is a phenomenon that impacts individuals around the globe. Now, with diabetes impacting people from children to the elderly, the out-dated approaches to diabetes diagnosis should be replaced with new, time-saving technologies. There's several studies carried out by researchers to recognise and predict diabetes. Here plenty of classifiers in machine learning can be used, such as KNN, Random Tree, etc.They can save time and get more precise outcome when using these techniques to predict diabetes. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a typical disorder of diabetic disease that induces vision-impacting lesions in the retina. It also can turn to visual impairment if it is not addressed early. DR therapy only helps vision. Deep learning has in recent times being one of the most widely used approaches that has accomplished higher outcomes in so many fields, especially in the analysing and identification of medical image classification. In medical image processing, convolutional neural networks (CNN) using transfer learning are commonly used as a deep learning approach and they are incredibly beneficial. Key words: Diab
