In the last 10 years, artificial intelligence (AI) has shown more predictive accuracy than humans in many fields. Its promising future founded on its great performance increases people's concern about its black-box mechanism. In many fields, such as medicine, mistakes lacking explanations are hardly accepted. As a result, research on interpretable AI is of great significance. Although much work about interpretable AI methods are common in classification tasks, little has focused on segmentation tasks. In this paper, we explored the interpretability on a Deep Retinal Image Understanding (DRIU) network, which is used to segment the vessels from retinal images. We combine the Grad Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM), commonly used in image classification, to generate saliency map, with the segmentation task network. Through the saliency map, we got information about the contribution of each layer in the network during predicting the vessels. Therefore, we adjusted the weights of last convolutional layer manually to prove the accuracy of the saliency map generated by Grad-CAM. According to the result, we found the layer 'upsample2' to be the most important during segmentation, and we improved the mIoU score (an evaluation method) to some extent.

The feedback sources of oculomotor control system consist of three types of feedback path originating from retinal image displacement, in the proprioceptive fibers of the extraocular muscles, in the efference copy within the C.N.S. From above feedback loops, the retinal image feedback path is a main subject in this experiment. The electrical output of eye ball motion detecting with a photo-electric matrix method is fed into galvanometer through the external feedback path, and the stability was also examined.

This paper describes a technique for detecting the boundary of the optic disk in digital image of the retina using inward and outward curve evolution. This paper offers medical information about glaucoma progresses. For accurate boundary detection, image inpainting based on texture synthesis removes blood vessels crossing the optic disk. For removing noises and preserving boundary of optic disk in image inpainting process, the anisotropic diffusion filtering is necessary. After pre-processing, the optic disk boundary is determined using inward and outward curve evolution. The experimental results show that the algorithm is effective for detection of optic disk boundary.
