<p>Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a related malady with diabetes and primary driver of sightlessness in diabetic patients. Epidemiological overview categorizes DR among four significant reasons for sight impedance. DR is a microvascular entanglement in which meager retinal veins may blast, bringing about vision misfortune. In this condition veins in retina swells and may blast in severe extreme condition. Operative medication is timely discovery by steady screenings that is by emphasizing the determination of retinal images using appropriate image processing techniques such as, Preprocessing of retinal image, image segmentation using sobel edge detector, local features extraction like mean, standard deviation, variance, Entropy, histogram values and so on. For classification of retina, system uses K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) classifier. By adopting this approach, The classification of normal and abnormal images of retina is easy and will reduce the number of reviews for the ophthalmologists. Developing a method to automate functionality of retinal examination helps doctor to identify patient’s condition on disease. So that they can medicate the disease accordingly.</p>

To improve the efficiency of the periodic surveys of the asphalt pavement condition, this study puts forward an intelligent method for automating the classification of pavement crack patterns. The new approach relies on image processing techniques and computational intelligence algorithms. The image processing techniques of Laplacian pyramid and projection integral are employed to extract numerical features from digital images. Least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) and Differential Flower Pollination (DFP) are the two computational intelligence algorithms that are employed to construct the crack classification model based on the extracted features. LSSVM is employed for data classification. In addition, the model construction phase of LSSVM requires a proper setting of the regularization and kernel function parameters. This study relies on DFP to fine-tune these two parameters of LSSVM. A dataset consisting of 500 image samples and five class labels of alligator crack, diagonal crack, longitudinal crack, no crack, and transverse crack has been collected to train and verify the established approach. The experimental results show that the Laplacian pyramid is really helpful to enhance the pavement images and reveal the crack patterns. Moreover, the hybridization of LSSVM and DFP, named as DFP-LSSVM, used with the Laplacian pyramid at the level 4 can help us to achieve the highest classification accuracy rate of 93.04%. Thus, the new hybrid approach of DFP-LSSVM is a promising tool to assist transportation agencies in the task of pavement condition surveying.

In this study, an image processing techniques (IPTs) and a Sugeno-typed neuro-fuzzy system (NFS) model is presented for classifying the wheat grains into bread and durum. Images of 200 wheat grains are taken by a high resolution camera in order to generate the data set for training and testing processes of the NFS model. The features of 5 dimensions which are length, width, area, perimeter and fullness are acquired through using IPT. Then NFS model input with the dimension parameters are trained through 180 wheat grain data and their accuracies are tested via 20 data. The proposed NFS model numerically calculate the outputs with mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.0312 and classify the grains with accuracy of 100% for the testing process. These results show that the IPT based NFS model can be successfully applied to classification of wheat grains.

Retinal Vessel detection for retinal images play crucial role in medical field for proper diagnosis and treatment of various diseases like diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy etc. This paper deals with image processing techniques for automatic analysis of blood vessel detection of fundus retinal image using MATLAB tool. This approach uses intensity information and local phase based enhancement filter techniques and morphological operators to provide better accuracy.Objective: The effect of diabetes on the eye is called Diabetic Retinopathy. At the early stages of the disease, blood vessels in the retina become weakened and leak, forming small hemorrhages. As the disease progress, blood vessels may block, and sometimes leads to permanent vision loss. To help Clinicians in diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy in retinal images with an early detection of abnormalities with automated tools.Methods: Fundus photography is an imaging technology used to capture retinal images in diabetic patient through fundus camera. Adaptive Thresholding is used as pre-processing techniques to increase the contrast, and filters are applied to enhance the image quality. Morphological processing is used to detect the shape of blood vessels as they are nonlinear in nature.Results: Image features like, Mean and Standard deviation and entropy, for textural analysis of image with Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix features like contrast and Energy are calculated for detected vessels.Conclusion: In diabetic patients eyes are affected severely compared to other organs. Early detection of vessel structure in retinal images with computer assisted tools may assist Clinicians for proper diagnosis and pathology.
