Abstract | Retinal blood vessels, the diagnostic bio-marker of ophthalmologic and diabetic retinopathy, utilise thick and thin vessels for diagnostic and monitoring purposes. The existing deep learning methods attempt to segment the retinal vessels using a unified loss function. However, a difference in spatial features of thick and thin vessels and a biased distribution creates an imbalanced thickness, rendering the unified loss function to be useful only for thick vessels. To address this challenge, a patch-based generative adversarial network-based technique is proposed which iteratively learns both thick and thin vessels in fundoscopic images. It introduces an additional loss function that allows the generator network to learn thin and thick vessels, while the discriminator network assists in segmenting out both vessels as a combined objective function. Compared with state-of-the-art techniques, the proposed model demonstrates the enhanced accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curves on STARE, DRIVE, and CHASEDB1 datasets. |

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.
