Image Smoothing and Segmentation by Graph Regularization
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a discrete regularization framework on weighted graphs of arbitrary topology, which leads to a family of nonlinear filters, such as the bilateral filter or the TV digital filter. This framework, which minimizes a loss function plus a regularization term, is parameterized by a weight function defined as a similarity measure. It is applicable to several problems in image processing, data analysis and classification. We apply this framework to the image smoothing and segmentation problems.

Graph regularization for color image processing
Nowadays color image processing is an essential issue in computer vision. Variational formulations provide a framework for color image restoration, smoothing and segmentation problems. The solutions of variational models can be obtained by minimizing appropriate energy functions and this minimization is usually performed by continuous partial differential equations (PDEs). The problem is usuall...

متن کاملMultiscale variational approach to simultaneous image regularization and segmentation
The problem of finding a piecewise smooth approximation of an original image while preserving edges is closely related to the image segmentation problem. Indeed, if we know the cartoon version of the original image, it is easier to perform an image partition into homogeneous regions. From this point of view, we propose to simultaneously perform regularization and segmentation. By working in the...

متن کاملSegmentation 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...
