Retinal vessel segmentation employing ANN technique by Gabor and moment invariants-based features
Automated retinal vessel segmentation technique using neural network for screening of diabetic retinopathy. Inputs of neural network are derived from the Gabor and moment invariants-based features. Proposed method can automatically identify and classify the image pixels as vessels or nonvessels. Proposed method has automatic recognition of the vasculature in retinal images. Method gives the location of vessels and pre-screening practice for early diabetic retinopathy detection.
