in this paper, we apply the differential transform (dt) method for finding approximate solution of the system of linear and nonlinear volterra integro-differential equations with variable coefficients, especially of higher order. we also obtain an error bound for the approximate solution. since, in this method the coefficients of taylor series expansion of solution is obtained by a recurrence r...

detecting blood vessels is an important task in retinal image analysis.  the task is more challenging with the presence of bright and dark lesions in retinal images. here, a method is proposed to detect vessels in both normal and abnormal retinal fundus images based on their linear features. first, the negative impact of bright lesions is reduced by using k-means segmentation in a perceptive sp...
