چکیده

This work addresses the problem of segmenting an object of interest out of a video. We show that video object segmentation can be naturally cast as a semi-supervised learning problem and be efficiently solved using harmonic functions. We propose an incremental self-training approach by iteratively labeling the least uncertain frame and updating similarity metrics. Our self-training video segmentation produces superior results both qualitatively and quantitatively. Moreover, usage of harmonic functions naturally supports interactive segmentation. We suggest active learning methods for providing guidance to user on what to annotate in order to improve labeling efficiency. We present experimental results using a ground truth data set and a quantitative comparison to a representative object segmentation system.

A Lvq-based Temporal Tracking for Semi-automatic Video Object Segmentation

This paper presents a Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ)-based temporal tracking method for semi-automatic video object segmentation. A semantic video object is initialized using user assistance in a reference frame to give initial classification of video object and its background regions. The LVQ training approximates video object and background classification and use them for automatic segmen...

Combining learning-based intensity distributions with nonparametric shape priors for image segmentation

Integration of shape prior information into level set formulations has led to great improvements in image segmentation in the presence of missing information, occlusion, and noise. However, most shape-based segmentation techniques incorporate image intensity through simplistic data terms. A common underlying assumption of such data terms is that the foreground and the background regions in the ...

Diagnosis of brain tumor using PNN neural networks

Cells grow and then need a very neat method to create new cells that work properly to maintain the health of the body. When the ability to control the growth of the cells is lost, they are unconsidered and often divided without order. Exemplified cells form a tissue mass called the tumor. In fact, brain tumors are abnormal and uncontrolled cell proliferations. Segmentation methods are used in b...
