Abstract

Embryo culture and transfer are the procedure of maturation and transmission of the embryo into the uterus. This procedure is one of a stage in the series of in vitro fertilization processes, better known as IVF. The selection of good quality embryos to be implanted presents a problem because of the blastocyst image. Blastocyst image is a very intricate texture to be visually determined, which is good or poor quality. This research aims to implement the pre-trained Inception-v3 network to predict blastocyst quality with add image pre-processing using wavelets. Using only 249 of human blastocyst microscope images, we developed an accurate classifier that can classify blastocyst quality with a transfer learning. The experiment with twenty epochs, the accuracy of training for only raw blastocyst images is 95%, and the best training accuracy uses a pre-processing image with Daubechies 6-tap of 99.29%. Our model was then tested on the 14 of blastocyst images and classified the images of two kinds of grade with the best accuracy of around 64.29%
