Are Traditional Deep Learning Model Approaches as Effective as a Retinal-Specific Foundation Model for Ocular and Systemic Disease Detection?
Samantha Min Er Yew, Xiaofeng Lei, Jocelyn Hui Lin Goh +26
Background: RETFound, a self-supervised, retina-specific foundation model (FM), showed potential in downstream applications. However, its comparative performance with traditional d…
