# DeepSeeNet PyTorch

This repository is a PyTorch reimplementation of the original DeepSeeNet model:

https://github.com/ncbi-nlp/DeepSeeNet

DeepSeeNet predicts patient-level AREDS Simplified Severity Scale scores for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) from bilateral color fundus photographs. The model follows the original DeepSeeNet design by first predicting eye-level AMD risk factors, then combining predictions from both eyes into a patient-level simplified severity score.

## Tasks

The implementation trains three image-level subnetworks:

| Task | Classes | Output |
|---|---:|---|
| `ADVAMD` | 2 | late AMD absent / present |
| `DRUS` | 3 | small/none, medium, large drusen |
| `PIG` | 2 | pigmentary abnormality absent / present |

The final AREDS simplified score is computed from bilateral predictions:

- score `5` if late AMD is predicted in either eye
- otherwise, score is based on large drusen and pigmentary abnormalities across both eyes
- bilateral medium drusen contributes one point
