Abstract

With the ability of MATLAB to run in the cloud environment the authors analyse a retinal image efficiently. A quick and on-the-fly image processing is the cause for leveraging the ability of Cloud with the classic computing power of MATLAB. This cloud-based image processing has significantly saved on the cost of procuring resources and it has processed an image in a few seconds. This revolutionary change in computing power has not only eased the life of engineering community but has demonstrated an inertia to help the common man through its language of computing. The objective of this particular piece of work is to leverage the ubiquitous cloud features to process the images taken from retina portion through a hi-fidelity algorithm. The reflection of the computing ability of complex mathematical equations, SaaS (Soft as a Service) architecture of cloud and tools developed in Windows Azure platform has come out as research findings such as the spatial modelling of a diseased portion of a retina. The portion diagnosed with a difficulty undergoes a series of steps based on the algorithm developed by authors and ultimately the original image is transformed into a form with information on the status of the disease in the retina.
