Conclusion

  • Classification is highly correlated with physician assessment
  • Stability to random permutation of training and test groups
  • Robustness to multiple camera types and lighting conditions

Future Steps

  • Wide clinical validation
  • Regional grading
  • Feature extraction without labels
  • Semi-supervised learning
