Automatic Segmentation of Exudates in Ocular Images using Ensembles of Aperture Filters and Logistic Regression [PDF]
Hard and soft exudates are the main signs of diabetic macular edema (DME). The segmentation of both kinds of exudates generates valuable information not only for the diagnosis of DME, but also for treatment, which helps to avoid vision loss and blindness.
