Researchers have developed PRISM-DR, a novel pipeline for detecting diabetic retinopathy lesions. Unlike previous methods that use a single multi-class model, PRISM-DR employs specialized single-class detectors for each of the four non-proliferative DR lesions: microaneurysms, hemorrhages, hard exudates, and soft exudates. This approach aims to improve accuracy by tailoring models to the distinct characteristics of each lesion type. The system achieved a test mAP50 of 0.527 and an F1 score of 0.529 on the IDRiD dataset, demonstrating a practical alternative to unified detection models. AI
