Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and devices for classifying ophthalmic images according to disease type, state, and stage. The disclosed invention details systems, methods, and devices to perform the aforementioned classification based on weighted-linkage of an ensemble of machine learning models. In some parts, each model is trained on a training data set and tested on a test dataset. In other parts, the models are ranked based on classification performance, and model weights are assigned based on model rank. To classify an ophthalmic image, that image is presented to each model of the ensemble for classification, yielding a probabilistic classification score—of each model. Using the model weights, a weighted-average of the individual model-generated probabilistic scores is computed and used for the classification.
