Diabetic Retinopathy affects the retina of the eye and eventually it may lead to total visual impairment. Total blindness can be avoided by detecting Diabetic Retinopathy at an early stage. Various manual tests are used by the doctors to detect the presence of disease, but they are tedious and expensive. Some of the features of Diabetic Retinopathy are exudates, haemorrhages and micro aneurysms. Detection and removal of optic disc plays a vital role in extraction of these features. This paper focuses on detection of optic disc using various image processing techniques, algorithms such as Canny edge, Circular Hough (CHT). Retinal images from IDRiD, Diaret_db0, Diaret_db1, Chasedb and Messidor datasets were used.

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.

Image processing is a technical term useful for modifying images in various ways. In medicine, image processing has a vital role. One example of images in the medical world, namely retinal images, can be obtained from a fundus camera. The retina image is useful in the detection of diabetic retinopathy. In general, direct observation of diabetic retinopathy is conducted by a doctor on the retinal image. The weakness of this method is the slow handling of the disease. For this reason, a computer system is required to help doctors detect diabetes retinopathy quickly and accurately. This system involves a series of digital image processing techniques that can process retinal images into good quality images. In this research, a method to improve the quality of retinal images was designed by comparing the methods for adjusting histogram equalization, contrast stretching, and increasing brightness. The performance of the three methods was evaluated using Mean Square Error (MSE), Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). Low MSE values and high PSNR and SNR values indicated that the image had good quality. The results of the study revealed that the image was the best to use, as evidenced by the lowest MSE values and the highest SNR and PSNR values compared to other techniques. It indicated that adaptive histogram equalization techniques could improve image quality while maintaining its information.

he disorder of Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), a complication of Diabetes that may lead to blindness if not treated at an early stage, is diagnosed by evaluating the retina images of eye. However, the manual grading of images for identifying the seriousness of DR disease requires many resources and it also takes a lot of time. Automated systems give accurate results along with saving time. Ophthalmologists may find it useful in reducing their workload. Proposed work presents the method to correctly identify the lesions and classify DR images efficiently. Blood leaking out of veins form features such as exudates, microaneurysms and haemorrhages, on retina. Image processing techniques assist in DR detection. Median filtering is used on gray scale converted image to reduce noise. The features of the pre-processed images are extracted by textural feature analysis. Optic disc (OD) segmentation methodology is implemented for the removal of OD. Blood vessels are extracted using haar wavelet filters. KNN classifier is applied for classifying retinal image into diseased or healthy .The proposed algorithm is executed in MATLAB software and analyze results with regard to certain parameters such as accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. The outcomes prove the superiority of the new method with sensitivity of 92.6%, specificity of 87.56% and accuracy of 95% on Diaretdb1 database.

This paper proposed a methodology for the analysis and detection of soybean plant leaf diseases using recent digital image processing techniques. In this paper, experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can successfully detect and classify the major soybean diseases. Methodology: MatLab 18a is used for the simulation for the result and machine learning-based recent image processing techniques for the detection of the soybean leaf disease. Main Findings: The main finding of this work is to create the soybean leaf database which includes healthy and unhealthy leaves and achieved 96 percent accuracy in this work using the proposed methodology.

<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>

With the advances in the computer field, methods and techniques in automatic image processing and analysis provide the opportunity to detect automatically the change and degeneration in retinal images. Localization of the optic disc is extremely important for determining the hard exudate lesions or neovascularization, which is the later phase of diabetic retinopathy, in computer aided eye disease diagnosis systems. Whereas optic disc detection is fairly an easy process in normal retinal images, detecting this region in the retinal image which is diabetic retinopathy disease may be difficult. Sometimes information related to optic disc and hard exudate information may be the same in terms of machine learning. We presented a novel approach for efficient and accurate localization of optic disc in retinal images having noise and other lesions. This approach is comprised of five main steps which are image processing, keypoint extraction, texture analysis, visual dictionary, and classifier techniques. We tested our proposed technique on 3 public datasets and obtained quantitative results. Experimental results show that an average optic disc detection accuracy of 94.38%, 95.00%, and 90.00% is achieved, respectively, on the following public datasets: DIARETDB1, DRIVE, and ROC.
