چکیده

In computer vision and object recognition, effective and efficient image segmentation is an important task. This paper presents an Interactive Segmentation of Medical Images. Since fully automatic image segmentation is usually very hard for natural and medical images, interactive schemes with a few simple user inputs are good solutions. The users only need to roughly indicate the location and region of the object and background by using strokes, which are called markers. For Interactive Segmentation, maximal similarity based region merging algorithm is used. Secondly, an auto adaptive Edge-Detection algorithm is used to detect the edges. Compare to other edge detection algorithm (Sobel, Prewitt, Canny, Laplacian), an autoadaptive is efficient and robust.

Image segmentation via fuzzy object extraction and edge detection and its medical application

A new interactive segmentation method that combines fuzzy connected object extraction and edge detection is proposed. Fuzzy connectedness is a global fuzzy relation, which effectively captures fuzzy “hanging togetherness” of image elements. First, by selecting the seed point, fuzzy connectedness value between each image element and the seed point is computed via dynamic programming. Then, throu...

Segmentation 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...

High Performance Implementation of Fuzzy C-Means and Watershed Algorithms for MRI Segmentation

Image segmentation is one of the most common steps in digital image processing. The area many image segmentation algorithms (e.g., thresholding, edge detection, and region growing) employed for classifying a digital image into different segments. In this connection, finding a suitable algorithm for medical image segmentation is a challenging task due to mainly the noise, low contrast, and steep...
