Retinal Blood Vessel Segmentation Using Hybrid Features and Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Networks

Abstract: Segmentation of retinal blood vessels is the first step for several computer aided-diagnosis systems (CAD), not only for ocular disease diagnosis such as diabetic retinopathy (DR) but also of non-ocular disease, such as hypertension, stroke and cardiovascular diseases. In this paper, a supervised learning-based method, using a multi-layer perceptron neural network and carefully selected vector of features, is proposed. In particular, for each pixel of a retinal fundus image, we construct a 24-D feature vector,… Show more

“…The performance of our U-Net trained for segmenting CRBVs from color fundus photographs is shown in Table 3. Comparing to the approaches reported in [53]- [58], the performance of our U-Net may look worse. However, in those works, specific systems for each database were developed by using training, validation/development, and test data from the same database and by optimizing the hyperparameters specifically for each database.…”

“…Orlando et al [29] used fully connected conditional random field model for blood vessel segmentation, but labeling all blood vessels was a challenge. The methods proposed in recent years, such as literature [30][31][32][33][34][35][36]. Although the performance was desirable, the training procedure was complicated, although these methods reached new state-of-the-art performance in some metrics, which was not practical for real application.…”
