Image processing techniques that involve multispectral remotely sensed data are considered attractive for bathymetry applications as they provide a time- and cost-effective solution to water depths estimation.In this paper the potential of 8-bands image acquired by Worldview-2 satellite in providing precise depth measurements was investigated.Multi
Objectives Train an automatic retinal image analysis (ARIA) method to screen glaucomatous optic neuropathy (GON) on non-mydriatic retinal images labelled with the additional results of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and assess different models for the GON classification.Methods All the images were obtained from the hospital for training h22a4 t
