Abstract:
|
Diabetic Retinopathy is a major cause for blindness, identified early by the formation of exudates
in the retina. The conventional method followed by opthalmogists is the regular supervision of the retina. As
this method takes time and energy of the opthalmogists, a new feature based classification for the detection of
exudates in color fundus image is proposed in this study. This method reduces the professionals work to
examine on every fundus image rather than only on abnormal image. The exudates are separated from the
fundus image by thresholding and removal of optic disk using morphological operation and connected
component analysis. The features are extracted from processed image and fuzzy technique is used for
classification of images as exudates and non-exudates.
Key words: Connected component, exudates, fundus image, morphological operation, , ,
