One of the earliest indications of diabetes consequence is Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), the main contributor to blindness worldwide. Recent studies have proposed that Exudates (EXs) are the hallmark of DR severity. The present study aims to accurately and automatically detect EXs that are difficult to detect in retinal images in the early stages. An improved Fusion of Histogram-Based Fuzzy C-Means Clustering (FHBFCM) by a New Weight Assignment Scheme (NWAS) and a set of four selected features from stages of pre-processing to evolve the detection method is proposed. The features of DR train the optimal parameter of FHBFCM for detecting EXs diseases through a stepwise enhancement method through the coarse segmentation stage. The histogram-based is applied to find the color intensity in each pixel and performed to accomplish Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) color information. This RGB color information is used as the initial cluster centers for creating the appropriate region and generating the homogeneous regions by Fuzzy C-Means (FCM). Afterward, the best expression of NWAS is used for the delicate detection stage. According to the experiment results, the proposed method successfully detects EXs on the retinal image datasets of Dia-retDB0 (Standard Diabetic Retinopathy Database Calibration level 0), DiaretDB1 (Standard Diabetic Retinopathy Database Calibration level 1), and STARE (Structured Analysis of the Retina) with accuracy values of 96.12%, 97.20%, and 93.22%, respectively. As a result, this study proposes a new approach for the early detection of EXs with competitive accuracy and the ability to outperform existing methods by improving the detection quality and perhaps significantly reducing the segmentation of false positives.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a condition that may be a complication of diabetes, and it can damage both the retina and other small blood vessels throughout the body. Microaneurysms (MA's) and Hard exudates (HE's) are two symptoms that occur in the early stage of DR. Accurate and reliable detection of MA's and HE's in color fundus images has great importance for DR screening. Here, a machine learning algorithm has been presented in this paper that detects MA's and HE's in fundus images of the retina. In this research a dynamic thresholding and fuzzy c mean clustering with characteristic feature extraction and different classification techniques are used for detection of MA's and HE's. The performance of system is evaluated by computing the parameters like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and precision. The results are compared between different types of classifiers. The Logistic Regression classifier (LRC) performance is good when compared with other classifiers with an accuracy of 94.6% in detection of MA's and 96.2% in detection of HE's.

Now-a-days, image processing is extensively used for analysis of several biomedical images to identify the complications in one’s health. Most of the solutions offered are based on application software. Since these solutions are expensive, an embedded system approach is being explored in the recent years, considering its cost-effectiveness. This paper propounds an embedded system approach to identify exudates in retinal images. These exudates are often identified as indicators of a medical disorder known as Diabetic Retinopathy, which is one of the medical complications that arise due to high blood sugar levels. The algorithm employs statistical analysis using histogram to enhance the contrast of the images, thus assisting in extracting exudates by utilising the elementary concepts of image processing. Since the pixel characteristics of exudates and optic disk match, it becomes inevitable to first eliminate optic disk from retinal images, and then extract exudates. The prototype has been developed on MATLAB and is downloaded on an Artix 7 FPGA with minimal usage of its resources. The system proposed in this paper results in an accuracy of 90%.
