The long term goal of the project is to automate the screening for diabetic retinopathy with retinal images. We have described the preliminary development of a tool to provide automatic analysis of digital fundus photographs to localise hard exudates. Future work will address the issue of improving the obtained results and also will focus on detecting other lesions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
