Automatic segmentation of diatom images for classification.
A general framework for automatic segmentation of diatom images is presented. This segmentation is a critical first step in contour-based methods for automatic identification of diatoms by computerized image analysis. We review existing results, adapt popular segmentation methods to this difficult problem, and finally develop a method that substantially improves existing results. This method is...
متن کاملAutomatic Segmentation of Diatom Images
In this paper we present a segmentation technique based on tools from mathematical morphology which can be successfully used for automatic segmentation of diatom images. The proposed method belongs to the class of hybrid segmentation techniques, and is based on the morphological watershed from markers. The novelty of this method is the computation and selection of markers. A new connected opera...
متن کاملNeural Network-Based Learning Kernel for Automatic Segmentation of Multiple Sclerosis Lesions on Magnetic Resonance Images
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a degenerative disease of central nervous system. MS patients have some dead tissues in their brains called MS lesions. MRI is an imaging technique sensitive to soft tissues such as brain that shows MS lesions as hyper-intense or hypo-intense signals. Since manual segmentation of these lesions is a laborious and time consuming task, automatic segmentation ...
متن کاملAutomatic Segmentation of Dermoscopic Images by Iterative Classification
Accurate detection of the borders of skin lesions is a vital first step for computer aided diagnostic systems. This paper presents a novel automatic approach to segmentation of skin lesions that is particularly suitable for analysis of dermoscopic images. Assumptions about the image acquisition, in particular, the approximate location and color, are used to derive an automatic rule to select sm...
متن کاملAutomatic Segmentation and Classification of Outdoor Images Using Neural Networks
The paper describes how neural networks may be used to segment and label objects in images. A self-organising feature map is used for the segmentation phase, and we quantify the quality of the segmentations produced as well as the contribution made by colour and texture features. A multi-layer perception is trained to label the regions produced by the segmentation process. It is shown that 91.1...
