Overview of Deep Learning Methods for Retinal Vessel SegmentationGorana Gojić, Ognjen Kundačina, Dragiša Mišković et al.
Methods for automated retinal vessel segmentation play an important role in the treatment and diagnosis of many eye and systemic diseases. With the fast development of deep learning methods, more and more retinal vessel segmentation methods are implemented as deep neural networks. In this paper, we provide a brief review of recent deep learning methods from highly influential journals and conferences. The review objectives are: (1) to assess the design characteristics of the latest methods, (2) to report and analyze quantitative values of performance evaluation metrics, and (3) to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the recent solutions.

Improving Customer Service with Automatic Topic Detection in User EmailsBojana Bašaragin, Darija Medvecki, Gorana Gojić et al.
This study introduces a novel natural language processing pipeline that enhances customer service efficiency at Telekom Srbija, a leading Serbian telecommunications company, through automated email topic detection and labeling. Central to the pipeline is BERTopic, a modular framework that allows unsupervised topic modeling. After a series of preprocessing and postprocessing steps, we assign one of 12 topics and several additional labels to incoming emails, allowing customer service to filter and access them through a custom-made application. While applied to Serbian, the methodology is conceptually language-agnostic and can be readily adapted to other languages, particularly those that are low-resourced and morphologically rich. The system performance was evaluated by assessing the speed and correctness of the automatically assigned topics, with a weighted average processing time of 0.041 seconds per email and a weighted average F1 score of 0.96. The system now operates in the company's production environment, streamlining customer service operations through automated email classification.

Non-adversarial Robustness of Deep Learning Methods for Computer VisionGorana Gojić, Vladimir Vincan, Ognjen Kundačina et al.
Non-adversarial robustness, also known as natural robustness, is a property of deep learning models that enables them to maintain performance even when faced with distribution shifts caused by natural variations in data. However, achieving this property is challenging because it is difficult to predict in advance the types of distribution shifts that may occur. To address this challenge, researchers have proposed various approaches, some of which anticipate potential distribution shifts, while others utilize knowledge about the shifts that have already occurred to enhance model generalizability. In this paper, we present a brief overview of the most recent techniques for improving the robustness of computer vision methods, as well as a summary of commonly used robustness benchmark datasets for evaluating the model's performance under data distribution shifts. Finally, we examine the strengths and limitations of the approaches reviewed and identify general trends in deep learning robustness improvement for computer vision.
