NetraSetu: Explainable DR Screening

**NetraSetu: AI-Powered Vision, Explained**

What it does

NetraSetu is an explainable AI-powered diabetic retinopathy screening solution designed for rural India. It analyzes retinal images to support early detection, provides transparent and understandable results, and helps healthcare workers make informed referral decisions. By enabling affordable, accessible, and trustworthy screening, NetraSetu aims to reduce preventable vision loss and strengthen eye care in underserved communities.

Offline-capable, explainable diabetic retinopathy screening built on a MATLAB pipeline: image quality AI, lesion evidence, calibrated grading and specialist triage.

Built on a MATLAB image-processing and deep-learning pipeline: judge the photograph, enhance it, show the lesions, grade it on the international scale — and hand doubtful eyes to a human. Blur, illumination, evenness, contrast and field-of-view are scored first. Ungradable images get spoken recapture instructions instead of a false result. Microaneurysms, haemorrhages and exudates are circled on the image, with a Grad-CAM++ map for the predicted grade. Temperature-scaled confidence and entropy-based uncertainty route doubtful cases to an ophthalmologist rather than guessing. The whole pipeline executes on the device so screening continues without connectivity; records sync later. A queueing…from netrasetu-zinovagroup.vercel.app

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
