Diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy using machine learning classification algorithm
Diabetic Retinopathy is human eye disease which causes damage to retina of eye and it may eventually lead to complete blindness. Detection of diabetic retinopathy in early stage is essential to avoid complete blindness. Many physical tests like visual acuity test, pupil dilation, optical coherence tomography can be used to detect diabetic retinopathy but are time consuming and affects patients as well. This review paper focuses on decision about the presence of disease by applying ensemble of machine learning classifying algorithms on features extracted from output of different retinal image processing algorithms, like diameter of optic disk, lesion specific (microaneurysms, exudates) image level (pre screening, AM/FM, quality assessment) Decision making for predicting the presence of diabetic retinopathy was performed using alternating decision tree, adaBoost, Naive Bayes, Random Forest and SVM.
