Abstract
Disease diagnosis from medical images has become increasingly important in medical science. Abnormality identification in retinal images has become a challenging task in medical science. Effective machine learning and soft computing methods should be used to facilitate Diabetic Retinopathy Diagnosis from Retinal Images. Artificial Neural Networks are widely preferred for Diabetic Retinopathy Diagnosis from Retinal Images. It was observed that the conventional neural networks especially the Hopfield Neural Network (HNN) may be inaccurate due to the weight values are not adjusted in the training process. This paper presents a new Modified Hopfield Neural Network (MHNN) for abnormality classification from human retinal images. It relies on the idea that both weight values and output values can be adjusted simultaneously. The novelty of the proposed method lies in the training algorithm. In conventional method, the weights remain fixed but the weights are changing in the proposed method. Experimental performed on the Lotus Eye Care Hospital containing 540 images collected showed that the proposed MHNN yields an average sensitivity and specificity of 0.99 and accuracy of 99.25%. The proposed MHNN is better than HNN and other neural network approaches for Diabetic Retinopathy Diagnosis from Retinal Images.
