Objective To propose an automatic classification method of fundus diseases for the elderly based on deep transfer learning, and to provide auxiliary diagnosis and analysis of fundus diseases for the elderly. Methods Total of 2048 fundus images were used as the original fundus dataset. First, the fundus image is preprocessed, such as removing blur, image scaling and contrast adjustment.Then,The fundus images were randomly divided into training group, validation group and testing group. The parameters of the convolutional neural network (CNN) pre-trained in other classification tasks were transferred, and then the parameters of the fully connected layer of the CNN model were fine-tuned according to the fundus disease classification task. After network optimization, the fundus disease classification and diagnosis network model was finally built. Finally, an independent test set was used to test the network model, and the classification of the model was checked through the confusion matrix. At last, the classification and diagnosis effect of the network model on fundus diseases was evaluated by indicators such as area under curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and F1 score. Results The classification accuracy of CNN model in fundus diseases was higher than 0.90, the sensitivity was in the range of 0.90-0.95, the specificity was in the range of 0.89-0.95, the AUC was in the range of 0.87-0.92, and the F1 score was in the range of 0.92-0.94. Conclusions The CNN model trained based on the transfer learning method is proposed to achieve automatic classification and diagnosis of fundus diseases in the elderly with high accuracy, and has the advantages of short training period and few training parameters. This method will help to improve the auxiliary diagnosis ability of the elderly population for fundus diseases in the grass-roots community.
