Abstract: PURPOSE:Increasing technological advancements in processing and storage have made it easier to handle formerly difficult jobs like disease diagnosis or semantic segmentation. Eye cancer is a rare but deadly disorder that, if misdiagnosed, can cause blindness or even death. It is essential to find eye cancer early in order to successfully treat it and enhance patient outcomes. The usage of DL methods for medical image analysis, particularly the identification of eye cancer, has fascinated increasing consideration in current era. The demand for efficient tool to detect the eye cancer emphasize the need for reliable detection systems. Examining how explainable deep learning techniques, in which the model’s decision-making process can be understood and visualized, can increase confidence in and adoption of the deep learning-based approach for detecting eye cancer. Expert input is necessary to train machine learning algorithms properly. As it necessitates knowledge of ophthalmology, radiography, and pathology, this can be difficult for eye cancer identification. The main purpose of the study is to detect the eye cancer with at most accuracy with the utilization of Deep learning-based approach. METHODS:There are four steps involved to achieve the efficient detection system. They are pre-processing, segmentation, augmentation, feature extraction with classification. The Circle Hough Transform is applied to detect the edges in the image. The dataset size is increased by shifting, rotating and flipping augmentation techniques. Deep learning-based approach is suggested for the automatic detection of eye cancer. The two methods named 3XConPool and 10XCon5XPool were investigated using Python learning environment. The two techniques 3XConPool and 10XCon5XPool imply on the Sine Cosine Fitness Grey Wolf Optimization (SCFGWO) algorithm for the adjustment of the hyperparameters. The 3XConPool and 10XCon5XPool methods with SCFGWO are compared with each other and also with the other existing methods. RESULTS:As a comparison to the earlier techniques, the suggested configured Convolution Neural Network with SCFGWP exceeds with regard to high accuracy, recall and precision. The suggested 10XCon5XPool with SCFGWO obtains 98.01 as accuracy compared to other method 3XConPool which results 97.23% accuracy. CONCLUSION:The Proposed Method 1 and Proposed Method 2 is presented here, where Proposed Method 2 with 5 times convolution layer with pooling layer yields high accuracy compared to proposed method 1. The main contribution by the SCFGWO algorithm resulted in the achievement of accuracy. This study will open the door for further investigation and the creation of deep learning-based techniques with optimization for ophthalmic processing.
