ClaRet – A CNN Architecture for Optical Coherence Tomography
share
Optical Coherence Tomography is a technique used to scan the Retina of the eye and check for tears. In this paper, we develop a Convolutional Neural Network Architecture for OCT scan classification. The model is trained to detect Retinal tears from an OCT scan and classify the type of tear. We designed a block-based approach to accompany a pre-trained VGG-19 using Transfer Learning by writing customised layers in blocks for better feature extraction. The approach achieved substantially better results than the baseline we initially started out with.
