Item A Few-shot custom CNN Model for Retinal Nerve Fibre Layer Thickness Measurement in OCT Images of Epilepsy(Proc. of International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, Computer, Data Sciences and Applications (, 2024-02-01) Ruqayya Muhammad; Moussa Mahamat Boukar; Steve Adeshina; Senol DaneThis study aims to assess the effectiveness of employing deep learning models for measuring retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans of epilepsy patients. Conventional OCT scan segmentation methods typically rely on supervised learning, demanding substantial data for training and assuming fixed network weights post-training. To mitigate these challenges, we explore the applicability of few-shot learning (FSL) in CNN architectures, allowing dynamic fine-tuning of network weights with minimal additional data. Experimental results demonstrate enhanced segmentation accuracy, with the proposed Few shot Custom CNN achieving a notable 91% accuracy, surpassing both the Custom CNN (86%) and the OCT machine data. This suggests the superiority of the few-shot Custom CNN model in segmentation performance compared to OCT scans.
