研究目的
To implement a heuristic algorithm assisted ODD evaluation procedure for RGB retinal images using a combination of Kapur’s entropy and K-means clustering to mine the optic disc region.
研究成果
The proposed FA+KE and KMC technique offers better results in extracting the optic disc from retinal images compared to the existing Otsu’s+levelset procedure, with potential for future clinical application.
研究不足
The study is limited to the use of DRIVE and RIM-ONE databases and may require validation with real-time clinical retinal images.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The approach implements a tri-level thresholding based on the Firefly Algorithm (FA) driven Kapur’s entropy and segmentation of OD based on K-means clustering (KMC).
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
DRIVE and RIM-ONE databases are used for experimental analysis.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Matlab2010 for implementation.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Initialization of FA with chosen parameters, implementation of tri-level threshold based on Kapur’s entropy, execution of K-means grouping to mine the OD section, conversion to gray scale, and comparison with GTs.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Comparison of the OD with GTs and recording the image similarity indices such as the Jaccard-Index (JI), Dice-Coefficient (DC), Sensitivity (SEN), Specificity (SPE) and Accuracy (ACC).
