摘要
In the evaluation of tear film stability based on corneal topography, a pretreatment algorithm for tear film video was proposed for eye movement, eyelash reflection and background interference. First, Sobel operator was used to detect the blur image. Next, the target image with highlighted ring pattern was obtained by the morphological open operation performed on the grayscale image. Then the ring pattern frequency of the target image was extracted through the Hough circle detection and fast Fourier transform, and a band-pass filter was applied to the target image according to the ring pattern frequency. Finally, binarization and morphological closed operation were used for the localization of the ring pattern. Ten tear film videos were randomly selected from the database and processed frame by frame through the above algorithm. The experimental results showed that the proposed algorithm was effective in removing the invalid images in the video sequence and positioning the ring pattern, which laid a foundation for the subsequent evaluation of tear film stability.
