A Comparative Study on Entropic Thresholding Methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
Image thresholding is an important task both for digital image processing applications and for pattern recognition. Image segmentation by thresholding is the simplest technique. In this study, we intent to carry out a comparative study of entropic thresholding methods. We examine several entropic thresholding methods which are the most popular in the literature. These methods are minimum cross entropy, maximum entropy sum method, Renyi’s entropy and Havrda&Charvat entropy. We perform experiments for demonstrating the effectiveness of the examined methods on image thresholding. .

Image Bi-Level Thresholding Based on Gray Level-Local Variance Histogram
Thresholding is a popular method of image segmentation. Many thresholding methods utilize only the gray level information of pixels in the image, which may lead to poor segmentation performance because the spatial correlation information between pixels is ignored. To improve the performance of thresolding methods, a novel two-dimensional histogram—called gray level-local variance (GLLV) histogr...
متن کاملA comparative performance of gray level image thresholding using normalized graph cut based standard S membership function
In this research paper, we use a normalized graph cut measure as a thresholding principle to separate an object from the background based on the standard S membership function. The implementation of the proposed algorithm known as fuzzy normalized graph cut method. This proposed algorithm compared with the fuzzy entropy method [25], Kittler [11], Rosin [21], Sauvola [23] and Wolf [33] method. M...

متن کاملEntropic image thresholding based on GLGM histogram
We propose GLGM (gray-level & gradient-magnitude) histogram as a novel image histogram for thresholding. GLGM histogram explicitly captures the gray level occurrence probability and spatial distribution property simultaneously. Different from previous histograms that also consider the spatial information, GLGM histogram employs the Fibonacci quantized gradient magnitude to characterize spatial ...
متن کاملAutomated Retinal Vessel Segmentation Using Entropic Thresholding Based Spatial Correlation Histogram of Gray Level Images
After highlighting vessel like structure by an appropriate filter in Matched Filter (MF) technique, thresholding strategy is needed for the automated detection of blood vessels in retinal images. For the purpose, we propose to use a new technique of entropic thresholding based on Gray Level Spatial Correlation (GLSC) histogram which takes into account the image local property. Results obtained ...
