Glaucoma Detection Using Image Processing and Supervised Learning for Classification
2022
Journal of Healthcare Engineering
For this study, the primary goal is to estimate the potential of the image analysis model for the early identification and diagnosis of glaucoma, as well as for the evaluation of ocular disorders. ...
An ensemble-based deep learning model for the identification and diagnosis of glaucoma is in its early stages now. ...
Prior to segmentation, one should first conduct a set of procedures aimed at addressing problems of noise, poor lighting, and retinal structures that affect the processing of the image. ...
