Abstract. This paper introduces a two-level approach for image segmentation based on region and edge integration. Edges are first detected in the original image using a combinatio...
This paper presents a method that combines graphbased segmentation and multistage region merging to segment laparoscopic images. Starting with image preprocessing, including Gauss...
Classifying pictures into one of several semantic categories is a classical image understanding problem. In this paper, we present a stratified approach to both binary (outdoor-in...
A novel method is introduced to force a geometric-based snake be more tolerant towards weak edges and noise in images. The method integrates gradient flow forces with region cons...
Because of the complexity of the human structure, and the irregularity of the human tissues, and the discrepancy of human individuality, segmenting and rendering 3D medical data f...
