چکیده

This work presents a flexible feature detectors for image with reduced area, power and memory requirements, supporting a variable input resolution. It focuses on processing an image pixel by pixel and in modification of pixel neighborhoods and the transformation that can be applied to the whole image or only a partial region and identify sudden changes in an image. The proposed work is optimized for feature detection, more specifically, the Canny edge detector and the Harris corner detector. The detector contains neighborhood extractors and threshold operators that can be parameterized at runtime. We implement the feature detection on segmentation of brain tissue in the magnetic resonance imaging for detecting the existence and outlines of tumors. Furthermore, we present the proposed architecture implementation on an FPGA-based platform the results show a clear advantage of the proposed architecture in terms of power consumption and maintain a reliable performance with noisy images. FPGAs are increasingly used in modern imaging applications, image filtering and medical imaging. Keywords—feature detectors, canny edge detector, Harris corner detector, FPGA, medical imaging

Segmentation of Magnetic Resonance Brain Imaging Based on Graph Theory

Introduction: Segmentation of brain images especially from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an essential requirement in medical imaging since the tissues, edges, and boundaries between them are ambiguous and difficult to detect, due to the proximity of the brightness levels of the images. Material and Methods: In this paper, the graph-base...

MULTI CLASS BRAIN TUMOR CLASSIFICATION OF MRI IMAGES USING HYBRID STRUCTURE DESCRIPTOR AND FUZZY LOGIC BASED RBF KERNEL SVM

Medical Image segmentation is to partition the image into a set of regions that are visually obvious and consistent with respect to some properties such as gray level, texture or color. Brain tumor classification is an imperative and difficult task in cancer radiotherapy. The objective of this research is to examine the use of pattern classification methods for distinguishing different types of...

P 3: The Study about MRI Images of Encephalitis and Diagnosis by Using the Software Ways

Introduction: Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain. Viral infections are the most common cause of the condition .Encephalitis can cause flu-like symptoms, such as a fever or severe headache. It can also cause confused thinking, seizures, or problems with senses or movement. However, many cases of encephalitis result in only mild flu-like symptoms or even no symptoms. It's important to get ...
