An Automatic Cognitive Graph-Based Segmentation for Detection of Blood Vessels in Retinal Images

Figure 5

Demonstrative results of each stage of applying graph-based segmentation. (a) shows some selected images from the DRIVE training, DRIVE testing, ARIA, and STARE datasets. Gold standards are shown in (b). (c) presents spectral-layer. The BTH-layer after applying graph-cut to vessel-layer (multiscale BTH) is illustrated in (d). (e) shows the final-layer after applying Dijkstra path.
