BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Aged people usually are more to be diagnosed with retinal diseases in developed countries. Retinal capillaries leakage into the retina swells and causes an acute vision loss, which is called age-related macular degeneration...
PURPOSE: To develop deep learning models for detecting reticular pseudodrusen (RPD) using fundus autofluorescence (FAF) images or, alternatively, color fundus photographs (CFP) in the context of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Progression to exudative 'wet' age-related macular degeneration (exAMD) is a major cause of visual deterioration. In patients diagnosed with exAMD in one eye, we introduce an artificial intelligence (AI) system to predict progression to exAMD in the ...
PURPOSE: To quantitatively measure hyperreflective foci (HRF) during the progression of geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) using deep learning (DL) and investigate the association with local and global growth ...
PURPOSE: To validate the performance of a commercially available, CE-certified deep learning (DL) system, RetCAD v.1.3.0 (Thirona, Nijmegen, The Netherlands), for the joint automatic detection of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and age-related macular dege...
Detecting epistatic interaction is a typical way of identifying the genetic susceptibility of complex diseases. Multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) is a decent solution for epistasis detection. Existing MDR-based methods still suffer from high...

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in the western world. Intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) is an effective therapy of the neovascular form of this condition. Multimodal...
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects millions of people and is a leading cause of blindness throughout the world. Ideally, affected individuals would be identified at an early stage before late sequelae such as outer retinal atrophy or exud...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The leading cause of vision loss in the Western World is Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), but together with modern medicines, tracking the number of Hyperreflective Foci (HF) on Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) imag...
We present self-supervised iterative refinement learning (SIRL) as a pipeline to improve a type of macular optical coherence tomography (OCT) volumetric image classification algorithms. In this type of algorithms, first, two-dimensional (2D) image cl...
