The invention discloses a fundus
blood vessel segmentation method based on deformable polar coordinate
convolution and multi-scale gating. The fundus
blood vessel segmentation method comprises the following steps: step 1, extracting multi-level features from an input image by using an
encoder based on the deformable polar coordinate
convolution; 2, enhancing the characteristics of the
encoder by adopting a multi-scale gating attention module; and step 3, generating a
blood vessel segmentation map by using the feature
pyramid module based on the deformable polar coordinate
convolution. According to the method, a deformable polar coordinate convolution is provided, and the offset of the deformable convolution is learned in a polar coordinate
system, so that the deformable convolution can better adapt to the complex form of the blood vessel. Besides, in order to cope with the adjustment of large blood vessel scale difference and high similarity between blood vessels and
background noise, the invention provides a multi-scale gating attention module, through a multi-scale strategy and a gating attention mechanism, the characterization capability of the model to multi-scale information and the anti-interference capability of the model to
background noise are effectively enhanced, and the accuracy of the model is improved. Therefore, high-precision fundus blood
vessel segmentation is realized.
