Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) This paper proposes a method to automatically estimate the distribution patterns of cone cells in a given retina image. As to the spatial relationship between cones and vessels in the retina image, there are three types of the distribution patterns:positive correlation distribution(PCD), negative correlation distribution(NCD), and random distribution(RD). PCD and NCD indicate that the cones tend to be close to or far from the vessels. While the cone cells do not have signi cant correlation with vessels, the cone distribution is regarded as RD. In
our method, a sample image with RD is generated by the vessels extracted from the image, and the virtual cells are selected randomly from the image. Repeating the selection process, many sample images with RDare used to estimate the distribution range of RD. When the distribution of the original cells is above the upper limit or below the lower limit of the RD distribution, the cell distribution is NCD or PCD. Otherwise, the cell distribution is regarded as RD.
