High-performance recognition of corneas and crystalline lens from highly noisy images
Artur Mariano, Sandra Franco
Abstract
This paper proposes an approach to human-eye cornea and crystalline lens edges acceptance in digital images, when captured in environments that returns highly-noisy images, in which edge-detection algorithms do not perform very well. The proposed approach is supported by previously known properties of the cornea and the crystalline, beyond specific filters based on such properties. After being computationally implemented, these properties are imposed on the set of the acquired data, allowing conclusions about what data is correct, wrong and possibly wrong. While the stated properties will always produce true results, the filters can cause data losses, and may thus be implemented depending on the context and on the desired accuracy. By comparing this approach with the conventional one, which relies on suitable digital filters, there were observed large speed-ups, for relatively equal final detections.

Disclaimer/Regarding indexing issue:
We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information.
