Abstract
Germinal matrix hemorrhage (GMH) is a critical condition affecting premature infants, commonly diagnosed through cranial ultrasound imaging. This study presents an advanced deep learning approach for automated GMH grading using the YOLOv8 model. By analyzing a dataset of 586 infants, we classified ultrasound images into five distinct categories: Normal, Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 3, and Grade 4. Utilizing transfer learning and data augmentation techniques, the YOLOv8 model achieved exceptional performance, with a mean average precision (mAP50) of 0.979 and a mAP50-95 of 0.724. These results indicate that the YOLOv8 model can significantly enhance the accuracy and efficiency of GMH diagnosis, providing a valuable tool to support radiologists in clinical settings.
期刊介绍：
Sensors (ISSN 1424-8220) provides an advanced forum for the science and technology of sensors and biosensors. It publishes reviews (including comprehensive reviews on the complete sensors products), regular research papers and short notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.
