The Communal System for Early Detection Microaneurysm and Diabetic Retinopathy Grading Through Color Fundus Images
Reliable microaneurysm detection in digital fundus images is still an open issue in medical image processing. We propose an ensemble-based framework to improve microaneurysm detection. Unlike the well-known approach of considering the output of multiple classifiers, we propose a combination of internal components of microaneurysm detectors, namely preprocessing methods and candidate extractors....
متن کاملAn ensemble-based system for automatic screening of diabetic retinopathy
In this paper, an ensemble-based method for the screening of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is proposed. This approach is based on features extracted from the output of several retinal image processing algorithms, such as imagelevel (quality assessment, pre-screening, AM/FM), lesion-specific (microaneurysms, exudates) and anatomical (macula, optic disc) components. The actual decision about the pres...
متن کاملAn Ensemble based System for Detection of Retinal Microaneurysms and Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a serious complication of diabetes and major cause of blindness. Therefore early detection through regular screening will be highly beneficial in effectively controlling the progress of the disease. Microaneurysms are the early signs of Diabetic retinopathy and appear as mall red dots. The number of microaneurysms gives the severity of the disease. Early microaneurysm de...
متن کاملAutomatic Microaneurysm Quantification for Diabetic Retinopathy Screening
Microaneurysm is a key indicator of diabetic retinopathy that can potentially cause damage to retina. Early detection and automatic quantification are the keys to prevent further damage. In this paper, which focuses on automatic microaneurysm detection in images acquired through non-dilated pupils, we present a series of experiments on feature selection and automatic microaneurysm pixel classif...
متن کاملAutomated microaneurysm detection in diabetic retinopathy using curvelet transform.
Microaneurysms (MAs) are known to be the early signs of diabetic retinopathy (DR). An automated MA detection system based on curvelet transform is proposed for color fundus image analysis. Candidates of MA were extracted in two parallel steps. In step one, blood vessels were removed from preprocessed green band image and preliminary MA candidates were selected by local thresholding technique. I...
