Reflections on the Utility of the Retina as a Biomarker for Alzheimer's Disease: A Literature Review. [PDF]
, 2019 As a part of the central nervous system, the retina may reflect both physiologic processes and abnormalities related to diseases of the brain. Indeed, a concerted effort has been put forth to understand how Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology may manifest

DUNet: A deformable network for retinal vessel segmentation
, 2018 Automatic segmentation of retinal vessels in fundus images plays an important role in the diagnosis of some diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. In this paper, we propose Deformable U-Net (DUNet), which exploits the retinal vessels' local features

Suboptimal eye movements for seeing fine details. [PDF]
, 2018 Human eyes are never stable, even during attempts of maintaining gaze on a visual target. Considering transient response characteristics of retinal ganglion cells, a certain amount of motion of the eyes is required to efficiently encode information and ...
