Postnatal gestational age estimation of newborns using Small Sample Deep Learning

作者:

Highlights:

• New small sample learning method combines photos/quantitative data, CNN & regression.

• Its application to GA estimation using newborns' photos (face/ear/foot) and weight

• In-depth analysis of data collected (& its effects) and the system (& its elements)

• Results improve current automatic & manual postnatal methods.

• Even with small dataset, viable postnatal estimation candidate in areas without USS
