Manual brain tumor segmentation of brain tumors from MRI is a challenging and time consuming task. Brain tumors are very difficult to segment because they have a wide range of appearance and effect on surrounding structures. Brain tumors generallyvary in size, position and image intensities (such T1 intensity, T2 intensity etc.) as seen in MRI. MRI images have overlapping intensities with norma...

In recent times, intuitionistic fuzzy sets introduced by Atanassov has been one of the most powerful and flexible approaches for dealing with complex and uncertain situations of real world. In particular, the concept of divergence between intuitionistic fuzzy sets is important since it has applications in various areas such as image segmentation, decision making, medical diagnosis, pattern reco...

Segmentation is considered as one of the main steps in image processing. It divides a digital image into multiple regions in order to analyze them. It is also used to distinguish different objects in the image. Several image segmentation techniques have been developed by the researchers in order to make images smooth and easy to evaluate. This paper presents a literature review of basic image s...

This report consists of a literature review of papers dealing with object recognition using unsupervised learning techniques. Five papers that brought important contributions to the field are summarized, analyzed and compared. It was found that unsupervised object recognition was considered first as an image segmentation problem, but new unsupervised object learning techniques have been develop...

For detailed estimation of urban imperviousness, numerous image processing methods have been developed, and applied to different urban areas with some success. Most of these methods, however, are global techniques. That is, they have been applied to the entire study area without considering spatial and contextual variations. To address this problem, this paper explores whether two spatio-contex...

We present a segmentation-based post-processing method to remove compression artifacts from JPEG compressed document images. JPEG compressed images typically exhibit ringing and blocking artifacts, which can be objectionable to the viewer above certain compression levels. The ringing is more dominant around textual regions while the blocking is more visible in natural images. Despite extensive ...

Graphs have enormous usage in software engineering, network and electrical engineering. In fact graphs drawing is a geometrically representation of information. Among graphs, trees are concentrated because of their ability in hierarchical extension as well as processing VLSI circuit. Many algorithms have been proposed for drawing binary trees within polygons. However these algorithms generate b...
