Otitis media (OM) is a prevalent disease among children worldwide. Antibiotic-resistant bacterial biofilms can develop in the middle ear during recurrent/chronic ear infections. OCT was used to compare microstructural texture features from primary bacterial biofilms in vitro. From 1200 ROI images of each biofilm class, 934 texture features were extracted. Principle component analysis and five-fold cross-validation were performed using Support vector machines (SVMs). Currently, the model has achieved 0.97 AUC (cubic kernel function) and an average classification accuracy of 89%. Texture analysis of bacterial biofilm OCT images with SVM may enable real-time visualization and differentiation of OM-causing bacterial biofilms in vivo.
