Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 10:
11. The method of claim 4, wherein the second model comprises a convolutional neural network (CNN),
wherein the at least one image comprises a structural volumetric image of the retina and at least one angiographic image of the retina, and
wherein generating the vasculature mask comprises:
generating at least one first generated image by convolving the at least one angiographic image with the membrane mask;
generating a second generated image by concatenating the at least one first generated image with the structural volume image;
generating, by the CNN, a third generated image by performing at least one of a convolution operation, a cross-correlation operation, or a concatenation operation on the second generated image;
generating a fourth generated image by performing parallelized multi-scale feature extraction on the third generated image; and
generating the vasculature mask by performing softmax activation on the fourth generated image.
