The aim of this paper is improving the iris segmentation with the Contourlet transform. At first iris segmentation performed by canny edge detector and Hough Transform. By this approach some images don’t segmented properly, so we want to find a way to correct the image segmentation failures. Before applying edge detector, Contourlet transform applied for image denoising. By this approach, %100 ...

In this paper, we present a new framework for effective content-based image retrieval (CBIR) based on rectangular segmentation. In image segmentation, speed is more important than accuracy in CBIR. We propose a new rectangular approximate image segmentation to solve the problem. We also develop a significance function to reflect the importance of different position in image, and improve the seg...

Model-Based image segmentation plays a dominant role in image analysis and image retrieval. To analyze the features of the image, model based segmentation algorithm will be more efficient compared to non-parametric methods. In this paper, we proposed Automatic Image Segmentation using Wavelets (AISWT) to make segmentation fast and simpler. The approximation band of image Discrete Wavelet Transf...

barrett's mucosa is one of the most important diseases in upper gastrointestinal system that caused by gastroesophagus reflux. if left untreated, the disease will cause distal esophagus and gastric cardiaadenocarcinoma. the malignancy risk is very high in short segment barrett’s mucosa. therefore,lesion area segmentation can improve specialist decision for treatment. in this paper, we proposeda...

Multi-atlas based segmentation methods have recently attracted much attention in medical image segmentation. The multi-atlas based segmentation methods typically consist of three steps, including image registration, label propagation, and label fusion. Most of the recent studies devote to improving the label fusion step and adopt a typical image registration method for registering atlases to th...

In this paper, different approaches are discussed for medical image segmentation. These are based on thresholding, learning, modeling and automatic fuzzy method. Segmentation techniques, discussed under these approaches are used in different applications. In identification of brain lesions, vessel lumen segmentation and histopathology cancer image segmentation. Further used in tissue segmentati...

The goal of image segmentation is to partition an image into certain number of pieces that have coherent features and to group the meaningful pieces together. Human interactions involved in segmentation should be as less as possible hence to overcome with the disadvantages of image segmentation some techniques were developed which will provide better result of image segmentation. We compared so...

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...
