Neonatal Jaundice Diagnosis Using a Smartphone Camera Based on Eye, Skin, and Fused Features with Transfer Learning

Neonatal jaundice is a common condition worldwide. Failure of timely diagnosis and treatment can lead to death or brain injury. Current diagnostic approaches include a painful and time-consuming invasive blood test and non-invasive tests using costly transcutaneous bilirubinometers. Since periodic m...
