Feature importance. The panels display for all three types of testing the permutation accuracy as measure of feature importance (percentage increase in mean squared error [% Inc MSE]). Hereby, the outer nuclear layer (ONL) thickness was the most predictive feature for all three types of testing. Generally, thickness measurements exhibited higher feature importance as compare to the layer intensities. Abbreviations: infrared reflection (IR); retinal-pigment-epithelium-drusen-complex (RPEDC); photoreceptor outer segments (OS); inner segments (IS); inner retina (IRET); full retina (FRET); fundus-autofluorescence (FAF). The color indicates the putative structural correlates of the imaging features (red: inner retina; green: photoreceptors; blue: RPEDC; purple – summation images). Notably, information from all layers contributed towards the predictions.
