Wavelet Based Image Segmentation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Image segmentation, feature extraction and image components classification form a fundamental problem in many applications of multi-dimensional signal processing. The paper is devoted to the use of Wavelet transform for feature extraction associated with image pixels and their classification in comparison with the watershed transform. A specific attention is paid to the use of Haar transform as a tool for image compression and image pixels feature extraction. Proposed algorithm is verified for simulated images and applied for a selected MR biomedical image processing in the MATLAB environment.

An Improved Pixon-Based Approach for Image Segmentation
An improved pixon-based method is proposed in this paper for image segmentation. In thisapproach, a wavelet thresholding technique is initially applied on the image to reduce noise and toslightly smooth the image. This technique causes an image not to be oversegmented when the pixonbasedmethod is used. Indeed, the wavelet thresholding, as a pre-processing step, eliminates theunnecessary details...
