| Abstract | The problem of automatically locating the fovea, a spot located in the center of the macula and responsible for sharp central vision, on the retinal surface image is considered. The uniqueness of the strategy presented here is the relatively small amount of computational expense of a quick and robust method conducive to real-time applications. The algorithm first identifies the main blood vessels using the modified active shape model (ASM) and then expeditiously attempts to fit the parabolic shape to the overall result to locate the fovea. A reliable tracking strategy is also proposed here to estimate the required vertex when the prior information of the optic disk is not available. When a patient's retinal vessel data have been modeled a priori and used as template, the technique brought up here should find its advantage in real-time image-guided applications like a computer-assisted photocoagulation treatment |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
