DME Detection using LBP Features

A system for detecting Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) volumes is presented. In preprocessing stage noise removal and flattening of scans is done which is followed by Local binary pattern feature extraction. The extracted features are then classified using linear support vector machine classifier. The proposed system achieved an specificity and sensitivity of 100% and 86.67% respectively.
