摘要:

本文提出了年龄和性别信息在糖尿病视网膜病变诊断中的重要性。我们利用了深度残差神经网络(ResNet)和密集连接卷积网络(DenseNet),这两个网络在图像分类问题和使用视网膜眼底图像诊断糖尿病视网膜病变方面被证明是有效的。我们使用了几个经典网络的集成,并分散了训练,使网络简单,避免了过拟合。为了观察年龄和性别信息是否有助于提高性能,我们在密集层之前添加了信息,并将结果与未添加年龄和性别信息的结果进行了比较。我们发现,具有年龄和性别信息的网络的测试准确率比没有年龄和性别信息的网络高2.67%。同时,与性别信息相比,年龄信息对结果的帮助更大。

英文摘要:

This paper proposes the importance of age and gender information in the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy. We utilized Deep Residual Neural Networks (ResNet) and Densely Connected Convolutional Networks (DenseNet), which are proven effective on image classification problems and the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy using the retinal fundus images. We used the ensemble of several classical networks and decentralized the training so that the network was simple and avoided overfitting. To observe whether the age and gender information could help enhance the performance, we added the information before the dense layer and compared the results with the results that did not add age and gender information. We found that the test accuracy of the network with age and gender information was 2.67% higher than that of the network without age and gender information. Meanwhile, compared with gender information, age information had a better help for the results.
