A Deep Learning Model for Evaluating Meibomian Glands Morphology from Meibography
To develop a deep learning model for automatically segmenting tarsus and meibomian gland areas on meibography, we included 1087 meibography images from dry eye patients. The contour of the tarsus and each meibomian gland was labeled manually by human experts. The dataset was divided into training, v...

description | To develop a deep learning model for automatically segmenting tarsus and meibomian gland areas on meibography, we included 1087 meibography images from dry eye patients. The contour of the tarsus and each meibomian gland was labeled manually by human experts. The dataset was divided into training, validation, and test sets. We built a convolutional neural network-based U-net and trained the model to segment the tarsus and meibomian gland area. Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were calculated to evaluate the model. The area under the curve (AUC) values for models segmenting the tarsus and meibomian gland area were 0.985 and 0.938, respectively. The deep learning model achieved a sensitivity and specificity of 0.975 and 0.99, respectively, with an accuracy of 0.985 for segmenting the tarsus area. For meibomian gland area segmentation, the model obtained a high specificity of 0.96, with high accuracy of 0.937 and a moderate sensitivity of 0.751. The present research trained a deep learning model to automatically segment tarsus and the meibomian gland area from infrared meibography, and the model demonstrated outstanding accuracy in segmentation. With further improvement, the model could potentially be applied to assess the meibomian gland that facilitates dry eye evaluation in various clinical and research scenarios. |
