  Abstract

In the field of medical image analysis, deep learning models have shown high performance, but securing sufficient training data is limited by privacy concerns and data imbalance. This study proposes an evaluation framework to assess the performance and stability of six lesion classification models using datasets composed of various ratios of real and generated fundus images. The proposed framework computes confusion matrix– based metrics, regression, and statistical analysis indicators, and integrates them into a stability index for each model. The results show that models such as DenseNet121 and InceptionV3 maintained stable performance even with higher proportions of generated data, and in some cases, outperformed models trained only on real data. In contrast, MobileNetV2 and NASNetMobile exhibited sharp performance degradation and lower stability indices as the proportion of generated data increased. This study presents a systematic framework to evaluate and compare the effects of model architecture and data ratio when using generated data in medical image AI, and it can serve as a guideline for designing models and constructing datasets based on generated data.
