Restricted Boltzmann Machines for Fundus Image Reconstruction and Classification of Hypertension Retinopathy

Conventionally classification of hypertensive retinopathy through analysis of fundus images by experts, but this method the results are highly dependent on the accuracy of observations and expert experience. In this study, we propose a fundus image reconstruction and Hypertensive retinopathy classification model using Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBM), as well as the Messidor database that has been labeled as a dataset. The experimental results show that the performance of the model produces an accuracy level of 99.05% where the model can generalize image input into one of the nine classes of the severity of hypertension retinopathy.
