Detecting Retinal Microaneurysms and Hemorrhages with Robustness to the Presence of Blood Vessels

• Proposed filters do not give false positives on blood vessels.• Filters are applied on sub-images resulting after division of image using a grid.• Multiple kernel learning (MKL) combines detections at different grid sizes.• MKL performs better than any individual grid size.
