New CAMEL framework creates lightweight retinal foundation models

Researchers have developed CAMEL, a novel framework for creating ultra-lightweight foundation models for retinal image analysis. This cross-architecture distillation method uses an asymmetric masking strategy to transfer knowledge from large teacher models to smaller student models. Experiments across four datasets demonstrate that CAMEL significantly reduces computational complexity while maintaining high accuracy, making these models suitable for resource-limited clinical settings.
