Research Summary

Application of ML Principles to Macular Disease

This PhD project involves the creation of a biologically inspired model for computer vision, upon which macular disease can be applied and the effects studied. The intention is that the model is sufficiently representative of biological vision that it acts and reacts in the same ways; this can be examined by applying actions to which the biological response is known. For example, amblyopia is a condition which results in some discounting of the input from a single eye in favour of the unaffected eye. If this effect was reflected in the model after the condition was applied, then that would indicate the model is representative of biological vision to some degree.
