Deep-Optimal Leucorrhea Detection Through Fluorescent Benchmark Data Analysis

Vaginitis is a common condition in women that is described medically as irritation and/or inflammation of the vagina; it poses a significant health risk for women, necessitating precise diagnostic methods. Presently, conventional techniques for examining vaginal discharge involve the use of wet mounts and gram staining to identify vaginal diseases. In this research, we utilized fluorescent staining, which enables distinct visualization of cellular and pathogenic components, each exhibiting unique color characteristics when exposed to the same light source. We established a large, challenging multiple fluorescence leucorrhea dataset benchmark comprising 8 categories with a total of 343 K high-quality labels. We also presented a robust lightweight deep-learning network, LRNet. It includes a lightweight feature extraction network that employs Ghost modules, a feature pyramid network that incorporates deformable convolution in the neck, and a single detection head. The evaluation results indicate that this detection network surpasses conventional networks and can cut down the model parameters by up to 91.4% and floating-point operations (FLOPs) by 74%. The deep-optimal leucorrhea detection capability of LRNet significantly enhances its ability to detect various crucial indicators related to vaginal health.
