Abstract
Blood vessel segmentation is a topic of high interest in fundus image analysis. This paper presents a clustering method to segment the blood vessels automatically from the fundus images. Our proposed method integrates with the wavelet transform, the morphological transformation and self-organizing map (SOM). Firstly, we extract a multi-dimensional feature vector of every pixel in the fundus image by wavelet transform and morphological operation. Then, the SOM network is integrated with K-mean method to cluster pixels. Finally, we validate the accuracy of our proposed method on DRIVE database, and compare our proposed method with other methods.
