Using orthogonal locality preserving projections to find dominant features for classifying retinal blood vessels

Automatically classifying retinal blood vessels appearing in fundus camera imaging into arterioles and venules can be problematic due to variations between people as well as in image quality, contrast and brightness. Using the most dominant features for retinal vessel types in each image rather than predefining the set of characteristic features prior to classification may achieve better performance. In this paper, we present a novel approach to...
