چکیده
The paper presents a new method for enhancement of orthodontic images using the combination of two-dimensional data with different type of illumination and their processing using digital de-nosing and gradient image enhancement in the preliminary stage. The region growing method and the appropriate seed selection is then studied as an alternative to the distance and watershed transforms for their segmentation. The main goal of the paper is in (i) the presentation of mathematical methods for image analysis in the orthodontic treatment and (ii) presentation of the region growing method use for image regions classification. Resulting algorithms are used for gradient edge detection and image components enhancement in orthodontics. Key–Words: Biomedical image processing, object illumination, digital filters, gradient methods, image segmentation, region growing method

The paper presents a new method for detection of orthodontic bodies, their separation, enhancement and analysis using their plaster casts models illuminated by different light sources. The proposed method is based upon the processing of the set of two-dimensional images acquired in different illumination conditions using digital de-nosing and gradient image enhancement methods in the preliminar...
متن کاملModified CLPSO-based fuzzy classification System: Color Image Segmentation
Fuzzy segmentation is an effective way of segmenting out objects in images containing both random noise and varying illumination. In this paper, a modified method based on the Comprehensive Learning Particle Swarm Optimization (CLPSO) is proposed for pixel classification in HSI color space by selecting a fuzzy classification system with minimum number of fuzzy rules and minimum number of incorr...

متن کاملLinear color segmentation and its implementation
A framework for color image segmentation is presented, which combines color histogram analysis and region merging approach. Its main goal is to segment an image at material boundaries (i.e., discontinuities of reflectance properties) while ignoring spatial color inhomogeneities of uniformly pigmented (colored) objects, caused by accidents of illumination and viewing geometry. Theoretical examin...
