optical coherence tomography (oct) is a powerful imaging modality used to image various aspects of biological tissues, such as structural information, blood flow, elastic parameters, change of polarization states, and molecular content [1]. in contrast to oct technology development which has been a field of active research since 1991, oct image segmentation has only been more fully explored dur...

In this paper, a modified segmentation algorithm for printed Farsi words is presented. This algorithm is based on a previous work by Azmi that uses the conditional labeling of the upper contour to find the segmentation points. The main objective is to improve the segmentation results for low quality prints. To achieve this, various modifications on local baseline detection, contour labeling an...

in analyzing a signal, especially a non-stationary signal, it is often necessarythe desired signal to be segmented into small epochs. segmentation can beperformed by splitting the signal at time instances where signal amplitude orfrequency change. in this paper, the signal is initially decomposed into signals withdifferent frequency bands using wavelet transform. then, fractal dimension of thed...

Introduction: Brain tumors such as glioma are among the most aggressive lesions, which result in a very short life expectancy in patients. Image segmentation is highly essential in medical image analysis with applications, particularly in clinical practices to treat brain tumors. Accurate segmentation of magnetic resonance data is crucial for diagnostic purposes, planning surgical treatments, a...

automatic road extraction from aerial images can be very helpful in traffic control and vehicle guidance systems. most of the road detection approaches are based on image segmentation algorithms. color-based segmentation is very sensitive to light changes and consequently the change of weather condition affects the recognition rate of road detection systems. in order to reduce the light change ...

background: nowadays, analyzing human facial image has gained ever-increasing importance due to its various applications. image segmentation is required as a very important and fundamental operation for significant analysis and interpretation of images. methods: among the segmentation methods, image thresholding technique is one of the most well-known methods due to its simplicity, robustness a...

Image segmentation is an essential and critical process in image processing and pattern recognition. In this paper we proposed a textured-based method to segment an input image into regions. In our method an entropy-based textured map of image is extracted, followed by an histogram equalization step to discriminate different regions. Then with the aim of eliminating unnecessary details and achi...
