Popis: Retina is the outer lining of human eye where the image formation takes place. Any threat to retina causes severe eye defects and may lead to complete blindness. During a defect the retina gets distorted. To measure the severity of a disease we need to determine different damage causing elements. Exudates are one such artefact that play a vital role in disease prediction. Diabetic Retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness in the working-age population of the world. Exudates act as a feature to predict this condition. This work aims to automatically segment exudates from fundus images using Image Processing and Machine Learning algorithms.
