Retinal Vessel Segmentation using Deep Neural Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Automatic segmentation of blood vessels in fundus images is of great importance as eye diseases as well as some systemic diseases cause observable pathologic modifications. It is a binary classification problem: for each pixel we consider two possible classes (vessel or non-vessel). We use a GPU implementation of deep max-pooling convolutional neural networks to segment blood vessels. We test our method on publiclyavailable DRIVE dataset and our results demonstrate the high effectiveness of the deep learning approach. Our method achieves an average accuracy and AUC of 0.9466 and 0.9749, respectively.

Extracting Vessel Centerlines From Retinal Images Using Topographical Properties and Directional Filters
In this paper we consider the problem of blood vessel segmentation in retinal images. After enhancing the retinal image we use green channel of images for segmentation as it provides better discrimination between vessels and background. We consider the negative of retinal green channel image as a topographical surface and extract ridge points on this surface. The points with this property are l...

The reconstruction of the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow is an important step in pre-processing of high-resolution satellite images. The cloud and cloud shadow automatic segmentation could be the first step in the process of reconstructing the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow. This stage is a remarkable challenge due to the relatively inefficient performanc...
