Automated detection of age-related macular degeneration using empirical mode decomposition

作者:

Highlights:

• Fundus images are converted to 1D signals using Radon transform.

• Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is applied on the 1D signal.

• Nonlinear features are extracted from IMFs derived from EMD.

• Various ranking methods are used to identify optimal features.

• Classification accuracy of 100% is obtained for STARE database.
