Abstract
We propose a modified U-Net architecture incorporating the residues from successive layers for the extraction of features in subsequent layers. The new Residues in Succession U-Net model is evaluated for blood vessel segmentation in retinal images on a benchmark expert-annotated dataset viz. Structured Analysis of Retina (STARE). The testing and evaluation results shows improved performance when compared to U-Net and R2U-Net in the same experimentation setup. A nonlinear image enhancement strategy is employed to improve the fine details in the images so that the network will be able to capture more information in further processing.
