Abstract: In order to design a real time system for performing a retinal vessel segmentation, we present method that can be implemented with cellular neural networks (CNNs). CNN is kind of neural network that can be very efficiently implemented on an analog chip, and allow us to operate in real-time. The algorithm is based on linear, space-invariant 3x3 templates, and can be realized using real-life devices with minor changes. The proposed design is capable to perform vessel segmentation within short computation time. It was tested on a publicly available database of color images of the retina, using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.
