Diabetic retinopathy (DR) stays as an eye issue that has continuously developed in individuals who experienced diabetes. The complexities in diabetes cause harm to the vein at the back of the retina. In outrageous cases, DR could swift apparition disaster or visual impairment. This genuine impact had the option to charge through convenient treatment and early recognition. As of late, this issue has been spreading quickly, particularly in the working region, which in the end constrained the interest of an analysis of this disease from the most prompt stage. Therefore, that are castoff to protect the progressions of this disorder, revealing of the retinal blood vessels (RBVs) play a foremost role. The growth of an abnormal vessel leads to the development steps of DR, where it can be well known by extracting the RBV. The recognition of the BV for DR by developing an automatic approach is a major aim of our research study. In the proposed method, there are two major steps: one is segmentation and the second one is classification of affected retinal BV. The proposed method uses the Kinetic Gas Molecule Optimization based on centroid initialization used for the Fuzzy C-means Clustering. In the classification step, those segmented images are given as input to hybrid techniques such as a convolution neural network with bidirectional-long short-term memory (CNN with Bi-LSTM). The learning degree of Bi-LSTM is revised by using the self-attention mechanism for refining the classification accuracy. The trial consequences disclosed that the mixture algorithm achieved higher accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity than existing techniques.

Diabetes affects retinal structure of a diabetic patient by generating various lesions. Early detection of these lesions can avoid the loss of vision. Automation of detection process can be made easily feasible to masses by the use of fundus imaging. Detection of exudates is significant in diabetic retinopathy (DR) as they are earlier signs and can cause blindness. Finding the exact location as well as correct number of exudates play vital role in the overall treatment of a patient. This paper presents an algorithm for automatic detection of exudates for DR. The algorithm combines the advantages of supervised and unsupervised techniques. It uses fuzzy-C means (FCM) segmentation on coarse level and mahalanobis metric for finer classification of segmented pixels. Mahalanobis criterion gives significance to most relevant features and thus proves a better classifier. The results are validated using DIARETDB0 and DIARETDB1 databases and the ground truth provided with it. This evaluation provided 95.77% detection accuracy.

PurposeDiabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the dangerous complications of diabetes. Its grade level must be tracked to manage its progress and to start the appropriate decision for treatment in time. Effective automated methods for the detection of DR and the classification of its severity stage are necessary to reduce the burden on ophthalmologists and diagnostic contradictions among manual readers.Design/methodology/approachIn this research, convolutional neural network (CNN) was used based on colored retinal fundus images for the detection of DR and classification of its stages. CNN can recognize sophisticated features on the retina and provides an automatic diagnosis. The pre-trained VGG-16 CNN model was applied using a transfer learning (TL) approach to utilize the already learned parameters in the detection.FindingsBy conducting different experiments set up with different severity groupings, the achieved results are promising. The best-achieved accuracies for 2-class, 3-class, 4-class and 5-class classifications are 86.5, 80.5, 63.5 and 73.7, respectively.Originality/valueIn this research, VGG-16 was used to detect and classify DR stages using the TL approach. Different combinations of classes were used in the classification of DR severity stages to illustrate the ability of the model to differentiate between the classes and verify the effect of these changes on the performance of the model.
