Abstract
Glaucoma is a chronic eye disease that leads to irreversible vision loss. Most of the existing automatic screening methods first segment the main structure and subsequently calculate the clinical measurement for the detection and screening of glaucoma. However, these measurement-based methods rely heavily on the segmentation accuracy and ignore various visual features. In this paper, we introduce a deep learning technique to gain additional image-relevant information and screen glaucoma from the fundus image directly. Specifically, a novel disc-aware ensemble network for automatic glaucoma screening is proposed, which integrates the deep hierarchical context of the global fundus image and the local optic disc region. Four deep streams on different levels and modules are, respectively, considered as global image stream, segmentation-guided network, local disc region stream, and disc polar transformation stream. Finally, the output probabilities of different streams are fused as the final screening result. The experiments on two glaucoma data sets (SCES and new SINDI data sets) show that our method outperforms other state-of-the-art algorithms.

Deep learning

TL;DR: Deep learning is making major advances in solving problems that have resisted the best attempts of the artificial intelligence community for many years, and will have many more successes in the near future because it requires very little engineering by hand and can easily take advantage of increases in the amount of available computation and data.
