Abstract
- Background: Glaucoma, the second leading cause of global blindness, demands timely detection due to its asymptomatic progression. This paper introduces an advanced computerized system, integrates Machine Learning (ML), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and image processing for accurate glaucoma detection using medical imaging data, surpassing prior research efforts.<br />Method: Developing a hybrid glaucoma detection framework using CNNs (ResNet50, VGG-16) and Random Forest. Models analyze pre-processed retinal images independently, and post-processing rules combine predictions for an overall glaucoma impact assessment.<br />Result: The hybrid framework achieves a significant 95.41% accuracy, with precision and recall at 99.37% and 88.37%, respectively. The F1 score, balancing precision and recall, reaches a commendable 93.52%. These results highlight the robustness and effectiveness of the hybrid framework in accurate glaucoma diagnosis.<br />Conclusion: In summary, our research presents an innovative hybrid framework combining CNNs and traditional ML models for glaucoma detection. Using ResNet50, VGG-16, and Random Forest in an ensemble approach yields remarkable accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score. These results showcase the methodology's potential to enhance glaucoma diagnosis, emphasizing its promising role in early detection and preventing irreversible vision loss. The integration of ML and DNNs in medical imaging analysis suggests a valuable path for future advancements in ophthalmic healthcare.<br /> (© 2024. The Author(s).)
