Automated Detection of Hard Exudates in Fundus Images Using Improved OTSU Thresholding and SVM

Abstract: One common cause of visual impairment among people of working age in the industrialized countries is Diabetic Retinopathy (DR). Automatic recognition of hard exudates (EXs) which is one of DR lesions in fundus images can contribute to the diagnosis and screening of DR.The aim of this paper was to automatically detect those lesions from fundus images. At first,green channel of each original fundus image was segmented by improved Otsu thresholding based on minimum inner-cluster variance, and candidate regions of… Show more

“…Within sight of a small number of mistaken shading data, focuses, or vessel twist focuses, the proposed strategy can, in any case, accomplish a precise optic cup limit. "A Cloud-based system for Automatic Glaucoma Screening," we propose a half and half cloud arrangement that comprises of an open cloud level and private cloud level to address these worries [6]. This arrangement offers anyplace access in the open cloud level and stores delicate patients' data just as it performs a savvy evaluation of the disease in the private cloud level [8].…”

“…The existing major methods used for image processing to segment electron microscope images include segmentation algorithm based on super pixel [9][10][11][12], segmentation method based on wavelet transform and Gaussian difference [13][14][15], segmentation method based on image block [16][17][18], and segmentation algorithm based on Otsu [19][20][21], segmentation algorithm based on neural network [22][23][24][25], etc. Otsu algorithm has been widely used as the best algorithm to find the global threshold of image, but it has noise sensitivity and can only segment a single target.…”

“…Retinal images are known as called fundus images [3]. The vital manifestations of diabetic retinopathy and retinopathy of prematurity and cardiovascular risk are the changes in retinal vasculature, such as haemorrhages, angiogenesis, and increase in vessel tortuosity, blockages and arteriolar-venular diameter ratios [4].…”
