• Abstract: Inner Retinal neurons are a most essential part of the retina and they are supplied with blood via retinal vessels. This paper primarily focuses on the segmentation of retinal vessels using a triple preprocessing approach. DRIVE database was taken into consideration and preprocessed by Gabor Filtering, Gaussian Blur, and Edge Detection by Sobel and Pruning. Segmentation was driven out by 2 proposed U-Net architectures. Both the architectures were compared in terms of all the standard performance metrics. Preprocessing generated varied interesting results which impacted the results shown by the UNet architectures for segmentation. This real-time deployment can help in the efficient pre-processing of images with better segmentation and detection.

  "Traditional" encoder-decoder based approaches perform poorly in detecting smaller structures and are unable to segment boundary regions precisely. We propose KiU-Net which has two branches: (1) an overcomplete convolutional network Kite-Net which learns to capture fine details and accurate edges of the input, and (2) U-Net which learns high level features. The proposed method achieves a better performance as compared to all the recent methods with an additional benefit of fewer parameters and faster convergence.
