Box-counting fractal dimension algorithm variations on retina images

This research work investigates the influences of FD algorithm variation on the measurement of retinal vasculature complexity. Forty retinal vasculature images from publicly available dataset were subjected to four variations of 8 box-counting FD algorithm. Different positions of box-grid were found...
