Coarse-to-fine classification for diabetic retinopathy grading using convolutional neural network

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common eye complication of diabetes and one of the leading causes of blindness and vision impairment. Automated and accurate DR grading is of great significance for the timely and effective treatment of fundus diseases. Current clinical methods remain subject to potential time-consumption and high-risk. In this paper, a hierarchically Coarse-to-fine network (CF-DRNet) is proposed as an automatic clinical...
