چکیده

We present a new general Bayesian formulation for simultaneously restoring and segmenting piecewise smooth images. This implies estimation of the associated parameters of the classes within an image, the class label for each image pixel and the number of classes. The intensity image is modelled by parametric models based on regularized networks. The method fits the regions (or classes) with complex spatial intensity distributions with an identifiable group of simple models. Prior information is introduced in form of a two-level Markov random field (MRF). The low–level MRF models the information required to recover piecewise restorations, while the high-level MRF constraints the segmentation. The high–level MRF supports a merging process of simple intensity models into classes.

Cluster-Based Image Segmentation Using Fuzzy Markov Random Field

Image segmentation is an important task in image processing and computer vision which attract many researchers attention. There are a couple of information sets pixels in an image: statistical and structural information which refer to the feature value of pixel data and local correlation of pixel data, respectively. Markov random field (MRF) is a tool for modeling statistical and structural inf...

Constrained Compound MRF Model with Bi-Level Line Field for Color Image Segmentation

Image segmentation is a basic early vision problem which serves as precursor to many high level vision problems. Color image segmentation provides more information while solving high level vision problems such as, object recognition, shape analysis etc. Therefore, the problem of color image segmentation has been addressed more vigorously for more than one decade. Different color models such as ...

A Multiresolution Approach Based on MRF and Bak-Sneppen Models for Image Segmentation

The two major Markov Random Fields (MRF) based algorithms for image segmentation are the Simulated Annealing (SA) and Iterated Conditional Modes (ICM). In practice, compared to the SA, the ICM provides reasonable segmentation and shows robust behavior in most of the cases. However, the ICM strongly depends on the initialization phase. In this paper, we combine Bak–Sneppen model and Markov Rando...
