DEEP NEURAL NETWORK-BASED RETINAL IMAGE ANALYSIS METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTION OF ABNORMAL KIDNEY FUNCTION

摘要

Proposed is a deep neural network-based retinal image analysis method and apparatus for detection of abnormal kidney function. A deep neural network-based retinal image analysis method, according to one embodiment, comprises the steps of: pre-processing a retinal image so as to detect abnormalities in kidney function by using the retinal image; learning whether there are abnormalities in kidney function through a deep neural network by using the pre-processed retinal image; and reporting whether there are abnormalities in kidney function by using the learned deep neural network. The method reports whether there are abnormalities in kidney function and provides report grounds, thereby being able to help a user make a decision.
