Abstract
A great effort of the research community is geared
towards the creation of an automatic screening system able to
promptly detect diabetic retinopathy with the use of fundus
cameras. In addition, there are some documented approaches
to the problem of automatically judging the image quality. We
propose a new set of features independent of Field of View or
resolution to describe the morphology of the patient's vessels.
Our initial results suggest that they can be used to estimate the
image quality in a time one order of magnitude shorter respect
to previous techniques.
