Automated diagnostic analysis of ocular fundus photographs

The retinal vessels are the only vascular network of human body that can be ob-served directly. The retinal image on the ocular fundus photograph can provide pathological changes caused by some eye diseases such as glaucoma, which may lead to loss of vision. It can also indicate early signs of some...
