A Modified Gaussian Mixture Model Algorithm for Image Segmentation based on Dependable Spatial Constraints
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a modified Gaussian Mixture Model algorithm based on dependable spatial constraints is proposed for image segmentation. In order to enhance the segmentation performance, the proposed algorithm utilizes the consistence between the pixel and its local window to discriminate uncorrupted pixels from corrupted pixels. Then, using these uncorrupted pixels, the dependable spatial constraints are applied to influence the labeling of the pixel. In this way, the spatial information with high reliability is incorporated into the segmentation process, as a result, the segmentation accuracy is guaranteed to a great extent. The extensive segmentation experiments on synthetic, real and medical images demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Abstract: Stochastic models such as mixture models, graphical models, Markov random fields and hidden Markov models have key role in probabilistic data analysis. In this paper, we used Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model were estimated by EM-algorithm. In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image was made by Bayes rule. In fact,...

متن کاملAdaptive Gaussian Mixture Model for Skin Color Segmentation
Skin color based tracking techniques often assume a static skin color model obtained either from an offline set of library images or the first few frames of a video stream. These models can show a weak performance in presence of changing lighting or imaging conditions. We propose an adaptive skin color model based on the Gaussian mixture model to handle the changing conditions. Initial estimati...
