A Novel Algorithm for Image Thresholding Using non Parametric Fisher Information
نویسنده
چکیده
The Fisher information (FI) measure is an important concept in statistical estimation theory and information theory. However, it has received relatively little consideration in image processing. In this paper, a novel algorithm is developed based on the nonparametric FI measure. The proposed algorithm determines the optimal threshold based on the FI measure by maximizing the measure of the separability of the resultant classes over all of the gray levels. The algorithm is compared with several classic thresholding methods on a variety of images, including some nondestructive testing (NDT) images and text document images. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the new method.

متن کاملG-Images: Towards Multilevel Unsupervised Image Segmentation
We present two novel approaches to initiating unsupervised segmentation of digital images using an algorithm that utilises the concept of information theory. The first approach uses Information Gain and the second is based on the Gini Index. In the two approaches, Information Gain and the Gini Index are calculated locally, at a pixel level, resulting in a G-image where high G value occurs at co...
