A Hybrid Filtering Approach to Retinal Vessel Segmentation
We propose a novel vessel enhancement filter for retinal images. The filter can be used as a preprocessing step in applications such as vessel segmentation/visualization, and pa...

Automatic Attribute Threshold Selection for Blood Vessel Enhancement
Attribute filters allow enhancement and extraction of features without distorting their borders, and never introduce new image features. These are highly desirable properties in bi...

Image Enhancement by Median Filters in Algebraic Reconstruction Methods: An Experimental Study
Algebraic methods for image reconstruction provide good solutions even if only few projections are available. However, they can create noisy images if the number of iterations or t...

Salient Region Filtering for Background Subtraction
The use of salient regions is an increasingly popular approach to image retrieval. For situations where object retrieval is required and where the foreground and background can be ...
