Contour Detection for Industrial Image Processing by Means of Level Set Methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the problem of the automatic inspection of industrial metal pieces. The purpose of the work presented in this paper is to derive a method for defect detection. For the first time in this context we adapt level set method to distinguish hollow regions in the metal pieces from the grinded surface. We compare this method with Canny edge enhancement and with a thresholding method based on histogram computation. The experiments performed on two industrial images show that the proposed method retrieves correctly fuzzy contours and is robust against noise.

Partial Differential Equations applied to Medical Image Segmentation
This paper presents an application of partial differential equations(PDEs) for the segmentation of abdominal and thoracic aortic in CTA datasets. An important challenge in reliably detecting aortic is the need to overcome problems associated with intensity inhomogeneities. Level sets are part of an important class of methods that utilize partial differential equations (PDEs) and have been exte...

متن کاملOn Analytical Study of Self-Affine Maps
Self-affine maps were successfully used for edge detection, image segmentation, and contour extraction. They belong to the general category of patch-based methods. Particularly, each self-affine map is defined by one pair of patches in the image domain. By minimizing the difference between these patches, the optimal translation vector of the self-affine map is obtained. Almost all image process...
متن کاملA New Method for Detecting Sperms in Microscopy Images: Combination of Zernike Moments and Spatial Processing
Introduction: In recent years, modern microscopic imaging in parallel with digital image processing techniques, have facilitated computerized semen analysis. However, in these methods, distinguishing sperms from other semen particles can be hampered by low contrast of microscopic images and the possibility of neighboring sperms touching each other. Materials and Methods: This article introduced...
