Convolutional Neural Network for the Detection of Cervical Myelomalacia

Convolutional neural networks, a machine learning technique, have been used in several industrial and research fields increasingly. The development of computational units and the increasing amount of data led to the development of new methods on artificial neural networks. Deep learning (DL) is a multi-layered neural network in which feature extraction is done automatically. It extends traditional neural networks by adding more hidden layers to the network architecture between the input and output layers to model more complex and nonlinear relationships.
