Popis: Blood vessel extraction from retinography images is useful for detection of many retinopathies. In this paper we propose a way to improve blood vessel detection by use of Fuzzy Mathematical Morphology (FMM) operators. The proposed pipeline, although simple, was found to have the highest accuracy on the STARE dataset, and second highest on the DRIVE dataset. We also present a parallel implementation of the FMM operators, in OpenCL, up to about 500 times faster than their counterpart in C++.
