With the development of this new technology, artificial intelligence has been one of the most influential information technology revolutions. We searched these English-language studies relative to ophthalmology published on PubMed and Springer databases. The application of artificial intelligence in ophthalmology mainly concentrates on the diseases with a high incidence, such as diabetic retinopathy, agerelated macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinopathy of prematurity, age-related or congenital cataract and few with retinal vein occlusion. According to the above studies, we conclude that the sensitivity of detection and accuracy for proliferative diabetic retinopathy ranged from 75% to 91.7%, for non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy ranged from 75% to 94.7%, for age-related macular degeneration it ranged from 75% to 100%, for retinopathy of prematurity ranged over 95%, for retinal vein occlusion just one study reported ranged over 97%, for glaucoma ranged 63.7% to 93.1%, and for cataract it achieved a more than 70% similarity against clinical grading.展开更多

A novel image correlation and support vector machine(SVM) based edge-adaptive algorithm was proposed, which can reduce edge artifacts and false color artifacts, effectively. Firstly, image pixels were separated into edge region and smooth region with an edge detection algorithm. Then, a hybrid approach switching between a simple demosaicking algorithm on the smooth region and SVM based demosaicking algorithm on the edge region was performed. Image spatial and spectral correlations were employed to create middle planes for the interpolation. Experimental result shows that the proposed approach produced visually pleasing full-color result images and obtained higher CPSNR and smaller S-CIELAB*ab?E than other conventional demosaicking algorithms.展开更多

For this purpose, standard support vector machines （ SVMs ）, mudttnomial logistic regression （ MLR ） and sparse representation （SR） based supervised learning algorithm were compared both theoretically and experimentally. Performance of the discussed techniques was evaluated in terms of overall accuracy, average accuracy, kappa statistic coefficients, and sparsity of the solutions. Execution time, the computational burden, and the capability of the methods were investigated by using probabilistie analysis. For validating the accuracy a classical benchmark AVIRIS Indian pines data set was used. Experiments show that integrating spectral.spatial context can further improve the accuracy, reduce the misclassltication error although the cost of computational time will be increased.展开更多
