Integration of Colour and Texture Distributions for Skin Cancer Image Segmentation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study presents an efficient way to segment the skin cancer images. A novel method is proposed that combines colour and texture for the segmentation of skin lesions from unaffected skin region in an image. The distributions of colour and texture features provide a platform for the discrimination of skin lesions. The segmentation results are evaluated quantitatively by means of a comparative experiment on a set of skin cancer images. The evaluation of the proposed method is based on the comparison with Live Wire segmentation technique. The results indicate that the proposed methodology proved effective and efficient for the skin cancer image segmentation.

Integration of Feature Distributions for Colour Texture Segmentation and Its Applications
This paper proposes a framework for colour texture segmentation. The framework uses the colour and the texture distributions for discriminating the colour textured regions. The proposed colour texture segmentation method was tested in three different applications. The applications includes Irish Script on Screen (ISOS) images, skin cancer images and Sediment Profile Imagery (SPI). Image texture...

متن کاملA Novel Method for Skin Lesion Segmentation
Skin cancer has been the most usual and illustrates 50% of all new cancers detected each year. If they detected at an early stage, treatment can become simple and economically. Accurate skin lesion segmentation is important in automated early skin cancer detection and diagnosis systems. The aim of this study is to provide an effective approach to detect the skin lesion border on a purposed imag...

متن کاملImage segmentation based on the integration of colour-texture descriptors - A review
The adaptive integration of the colour and texture attributes in the development of complex image descriptors is one of the most investigated topics of research in computer vision. The substantial interest shown by the research community in colour–texture-based segmentation is mainly motivated by two factors. The first is related to the observation that the imaged objects are often described at...
