Vascular tree tracking and bifurcation points detection in retinal images using a hierarchical probabilistic model

•A new machine learning algorithm for joint classification and tracking of retinal blood vessels is presented.•Proposed method is based on a hierarchical probabilistic framework, where the local vessel intensity profiles are classified as either junction or vessel points.•The model hyperparameters a...
