GPU-based relative fuzzy connectedness image segmentation.
PURPOSE Recently, clinical radiological research and practice are becoming increasingly quantitative. Further, images continue to increase in size and volume. For quantitative radiology to become practical, it is crucial that image segmentation algorithms and their implementations are rapid and yield practical run time on very large data sets. The purpose of this paper is to present a parallel ...
متن کاملGPU-based iterative relative fuzzy connectedness image segmentation
This paper presents a parallel algorithm for the top of the line among the fuzzy connectedness algorithm family, namely the iterative relative fuzzy connectedness (IRFC) segmentation method. The algorithm of IRFC, realized via image foresting transform (IFT), is implemented by using NVIDIA’s compute unified device architecture (CUDA) platform for segmenting large medical image data sets. In the...
متن کاملAdaptive Fuzzy Connectedness-Based Medical Image Segmentation
In this paper, we present an enhancement of the fuzzy connectedness-based image segmentation method based on dynamic computation of adaptive weights for the homogeneity and the directional gradient energy functions. Adaptive weights enhance the performance and robustness of the conventional fuzzy connectedness-based segmentation while decreasing the degree of user interaction. The accuracy of t...
متن کاملJoint graph cut and relative fuzzy connectedness image segmentation algorithm
We introduce an image segmentation algorithm, called GC(sum)(max), which combines, in novel manner, the strengths of two popular algorithms: Relative Fuzzy Connectedness (RFC) and (standard) Graph Cut (GC). We show, both theoretically and experimentally, that GC(sum)(max) preserves robustness of RFC with respect to the seed choice (thus, avoiding "shrinking problem" of GC), while keeping GC's s...
متن کاملFuzzy connectedness and image segmentation
Image segmentation—the process of defining objects in images—remains the most challenging problem in image processing despite decades of research. Many general methodologies have been proposed to date to tackle this problem. An emerging framework that has shown considerable promise recently is that of fuzzy connectedness. Images are by nature fuzzy. Object regions manifest themselves in images ...
