Certainty color maps compared to histograms

چکیده

We present a new segmentation algorithm based on probabilistic histograms and introduce certainty calculus and certainty color maps to solve the difficult problem of histogram separation. This new method is then compared to simple histogram and normalized histogram techniques. Using a set of experiments designed to measure the quality of segmentation, we have shown that certainty color maps is a much more accurate approach than histograms, especially when histogram separation in necessary.

Characterization of low-grade gliomas using RGB color maps derived from ADC histograms.

PURPOSE To use normalized apparent diffusion coefficient (nADC) histograms from patients with grade II oligodendroglioma (OD) and astrocytoma (AC) to generate RGB color maps that emphasize the differences between normal-appearing white matter (NAWM), oligo-like, and astro-like regions. MATERIALS AND METHODS NAWM and nonenhancing lesion (NEL) ADC values from 19 ODs and 11 ACs were summed to ge...

Color scene transform between images using Rosenfeld-Kak histogram matching method

In digital color imaging, it is of interest to transform the color scene of an image to the other. Some attempts have been done in this case using, for example, lαβ color space, principal component analysis and recently histogram rescaling method. In this research, a novel method is proposed based on the Resenfeld and Kak histogram matching algorithm. It is suggested that to transform the color...

A Graph Based People Silhouette Segmentation Using Combined Probabilities Extracted from Appearance, Shape Template Prior, and Color Distributions

In this paper, we present an approach for the segmentation of people silhouettes in images. Since in real-world images estimating pixel probabilities to belong to people or background is difficult, we propose to optimally combine several ones. A local window classifier based on SVMs with Histograms of Oriented Gradients features estimates probabilities from pixels’ appearance. A shape template ...

Color mode filtering

In this paper mode filtering of color images is explored. An existing framework based on local histograms is extended to multi-channel images. Within this framework three color mode operations are proposed; 1. global mode operation for edge sharpening, noise reduction and small object removal, 2. constrained mode operation for white noise filtering while preserving detail, and 3. uncertain data...

Color Image Retrieval Schemes Using Index Histograms Based on Various Spatial-domain Vector Quantizers

This paper proposes two new compressed-domain features for color image retrieval based on the YCbCr color space. They are named Multi-Stage Vector Quantization Index Histograms (MSVQIH) and Mean-Removed Vector Quantization Index Histograms (MRVQIH). For each color component, to obtain the MSVQIH features, we extract two MSVQ Index histograms from the two stage VQ index sequences respectively. S...
