A robust algorithm for optic disc segmentation and fovea detection in retinal fundus images

Accurate optic disc (OD) segmentation and fovea detection in retinal fundus images are crucial for diagnosis in ophthalmology. We propose a robust and broadly applicable algorithm for automated, robust, reliable and consistent fovea detection based on OD segmentation. The OD segmentation is performe...
