Abstract

An Artificial Intelligence (AI) computational system for generating an embryo viability score from a single image of an embryo to aid selection of an embryo for implantation in an In-Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) procedure is described. The AI model uses a deep learning method applied to images in which the Zona Pellucida region in the image is identified using segmentation, and ground truth labels such as detection of a heartbeat at a six week ultrasound scan.
