Generic Multi-scale Segmentation and Curve Approximation Method

چکیده
We propose a new complete method to extract significant description(s) of planar curves according to constant curvature segments. This method is based (i) on a multi-scale segmentation and curve approximation algorithm, defined by two grouping processes (polygonal and constant curvature approximations), leading to a multi-scale covering of the curve, and (ii) on an intraand inter-scale classification of this multiscale covering guided by heuristically-defined qualitative labels leading to pairs (scale, list of constant curvature segments) that best describe the shape of the curve. Experiments show that the proposed method is able to provide salient segmentation and approximation results which respect shape description and recognition criteria.

Capturing Outlines of Planar Generic Images by Simultaneous Curve Fitting and Sub-division
In this paper, a new technique has been designed to capture the outline of 2D shapes using cubic B´ezier curves. The proposed technique avoids the traditional method of optimizing the global squared fitting error and emphasizes the local control of data points. A maximum error has been determined to preserve the absolute fitting error less than a criterion and it administers the process of curv...

متن کاملLearning Dual Multi-Scale Manifold Ranking for Semantic Segmentation of High-Resolution Images
Semantic image segmentation has recently witnessed considerable progress by training deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The core issue of this technique is the limited capacity of CNNs to depict visual objects. Existing approaches tend to utilize approximate inference in a discrete domain or additional aides and do not have a global optimum guarantee. We propose the use of the multi-lab...
متن کاملA Novel Spot-Enhancement Anisotropic Diffusion Method for the Improvement of Segmentation in Two-dimensional Gel Electrophoresis Images, Based on the Watershed Transform Algorithm
Introduction Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DGE) is a powerful technique in proteomics for protein separation. In this technique, spot segmentation is an essential stage, which can be challenging due to problems such as overlapping spots, streaks, artifacts and noise. Watershed transform is one of the common methods for image segmentation. Nevertheless, in 2DGE image segmentation, the no...
