Abstract:
Deep Learning tools are widely used for medical image segmentation. The results produced by these techniques depend to a great extent on the data sets used to train the used network. Nowadays many cloud service providers offer the required resources to train networks and deploy deep learning networks. This makes the idea of segmentation as a cloud-based service attractive. In this paper we study the possibility of training, a generalized configurable, Keras U-Net to test the feasibility of training with images acquired, with specific instruments, to perform predictions on data from other instruments. We use, as our application example, the segmentation of Optic Disc and Cup which can be applied to glaucoma detection. We use two publicly available data sets (RIM-One V3 and DRISHTI) to train either independently or combining their data.
