Abstract
A method of processing a digital image for use by a digital image classifier comprises: processing the digital image with computational models of a retinal ganglion cell (RGC) to produce sets of digital image features; and combining the sets of digital image features to produce a multi-channel retina model image. The method may be used in digital image classification and in training a digital image classifier. The creation and use of multi-channel retina model images improves the ability to detect pertinent image features during image classification and so improves the overall classification process.
