Detection of diabetic radiology disease in the early detection stage is crucial for preventing vision loss. In this work, a deep learning-based binary classification of DR images has been proposed to classify DR images into healthy and unhealthy.

In this work, three rubout datasets of diabetic retinopathy images have been selected, named DRD- EyePACS, IDRiD, and APTOS-2019, for the extensive experiments, and a combined diabetic retinopathy image dataset has been generated for the exhaustive experiments. The datasets have been divided into training, testing, and validation sets, and the models use classification accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, F1-score, and ROC-AUC to assess the model's efficiency for evaluating network performance.
