چکیده

A necessary prerequisite for object oriented image processing is successful image segmentation. The approach presented in this paper aims for an universal high-quality solution applicable and adaptable to many problems and data types. As each image analysis problem deals with structures of a certain spatial scale, the average image objects size must be free adaptable to the scale of interest. This is achieved by a general segmentation algorithm based on homogeneity definitions in combination with local and global optimization techniques. A scale parameter is used to control the average image object size. Different homogeneity criteria for image objects based on spectral and/or spatial information are developed and compared.

Quantitative Comparison of SPM, FSL, and Brainsuite for Brain MR Image Segmentation

Background: Accurate brain tissue segmentation from magnetic resonance (MR) images is an important step in analysis of cerebral images. There are software packages which are used for brain segmentation. These packages usually contain a set of skull stripping, intensity non-uniformity (bias) correction and segmentation routines. Thus, assessment of the quality of the segmented gray matter (GM), ...

An Automated MR Image Segmentation System Using Multi-layer Perceptron Neural Network

Background: Brain tissue segmentation for delineation of 3D anatomical structures from magnetic resonance (MR) images can be used for neuro-degenerative disorders, characterizing morphological differences between subjects based on volumetric analysis of gray matter (GM), white matter (WM) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), but only if the obtained segmentation results are correct. Due to image arti...

Multiresolution texture segmentation with application to diagnostic ultrasound images

A multiresolution texture segmentation (MTS) approach to image segmentation that addresses the issues of texture characterization, image resolution, and time to complete the segmentation is presented. The approach generalizes the conventional simulated annealing method to a multiresolution framework and minimizes an energy function that is dependent on the resolution of the size of the texture ...

Wavelet based Marker-Controlled Watershed Segmentation Technique for High Resolution Satellite Images

Image analysis requires a segmentation step to distinguish the significant components of the image, i.e., the foreground from the background. As a step prior to image classification the quality of the segmentation is of significant importance. Highresolution satellite image classification using standard per-pixel approaches is difficult because of the high volume of data, as well as high spatia...
