| Abstract | The paper describes our work on the segmentation of the optic disc in retinal images. Our approach comprises of two main steps; a pixel classification method to identify pixels that may belong to the optic disc boundary and a circular template matching method to estimate the circular approximation of the optic disc boundary. The features used are based on texture, calculated using the intensity differences of local image patches. This was adapted from Binary Robust Independent Elementary Features (BRIEF). BRIEF is inherently invariant to image illumination and has a lower degree of computational complexity compared to other existing texture measurement methods. Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) and Naive Bayes are the clustering and classifier used to cluster/classify the image pixels. The method was tested on a set of 196 images composed of 110 healthy retina images and 86 glaucomatous images. The average mean overlap ratio between the true optic disc region and segmented region is 0.81 for both FCM and Naive Bayes. Comparison with a method based on the Hough Transform is also provided. |

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.
