• Abstract: The accurate retinal vessel segmentation (RVS) is of great significance to assist doctors in the diagnosis of ophthalmology diseases and other systemic diseases. Manually designing a valid neural network architecture for retinal vessel segmentation requires high expertise and a large workload. In order to improve the performance of vessel segmentation and reduce the workload of manually designing neural network, we propose novel approach which applies neural architecture search (NAS) to optimize an encoder-decoder architecture for retinal vessel segmentation. A modified evolutionary algorithm is used to evolve the architectures of encoder-decoder framework with limited computing resources. The evolved model obtained by the proposed approach achieves top performance among all compared methods on the three datasets, namely DRIVE, STARE and CHASE_DB1, but with much fewer parameters. Moreover, the results of cross-training show that the evolved model is with considerable scalability, which indicates a great potential for clinical disease diagnosis.

  Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is an eye disorder primarily affecting premature infants with lower weights. It causes proliferation of vessels in the retina and could result in vision loss and, eventually, retinal detachment, leading to blindness. In recent years, there has been a significant effort to automate the diagnosis using deep learning. This paper builds upon the success of previous models and develops a novel architecture, which combines object segmentation and convolutional neural networks (CNN) Our proposed system first trains an object segmentation model to identify the demarcation line at a pixel level and adds the resulting mask as an additional "color" channel in
