In this paper, an alternative Active Contour Model (ACM) driven by Multi-population Cuckoo Search (CS) algorithm is introduced. This strategy assists the converging of control points towards the global minimum of the energy function, unlike the traditional ACM version which is often trapped in a local minimum. In the proposed methodology, each control point is constrained in a local search window, and its energy minimisation is performed through a Cuckoo Search via Lévy flights paradigm. With respect to local search window, two shape approaches have been considered: rectangular shape and polar coordinates. Results showed that the CS method using polar coordinates is generally preferable to CS performed in rectangular shapes. Real medical and synthetic images were used to validate the proposed strategy, through three performance metrics as the Jaccard index, the Dice index and the Hausdorff distance. Applied specifically to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images, the proposed method enables to reach better accuracy performance than the traditional ACM formulation, also known as Snakes and the use of Multi-population Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO) algorithm. 相似文献

There are now a wide variety of image segmentation techniques, some considered general purpose and some designed for specific classes of images. These techniques can be classified as: measurement space guided spatial clustering, single linkage region growing schemes, hybrid linkage region growing schemes, centroid linkage region growing schemes, spatial clustering schemes, and split-and-merge schemes. In this paper, each of the major classes of image segmentation techniques is defined and several specific examples of each class of algorithm are described. The techniques are illustrated with examples of segmentations performed on real images. 相似文献

We propose a new approach of the image segmentation methods. This approach is based on a functional model composed of five elementary blocks called in an iterative process. Different segmentation methods can be decomposed with such a scheme and lead to elementary building blocks with unified functionality and interfaces. We present the decompositions of three segmentation methods and the implementation results, which illustrate the potential of the proposed model. This generic model is a common framework, which makes segmentation techniques more readable and offers new perspectives for the development, the comparison and the implementation of segmentation methods. 相似文献

Many online stores encourage their users to submit product or service reviews in order to guide future purchasing decisions. These reviews are often listed alongside product recommendations but, to date, limited attention has been paid as to how best to present these reviews to the end-user. In this paper, we describe a supervised classification approach that is designed to identify and recommend the most helpful product reviews. Using the TripAdvisor service as a case study, we compare the performance of several classification techniques using a range of features derived from hotel reviews. We then describe how these classifiers can be used as the basis for a practical recommender that automatically suggests the most-helpful contrasting reviews to end-users. We present an empirical evaluation which shows that our approach achieves a statistically significant improvement over alternative review ranking schemes. 相似文献

Image segmentation with ratio cut 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20
Wang S. Siskind J.M. 《IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence》2003,25(6):675-690
This paper proposes a new cost function, cut ratio, for segmenting images using graph-based methods. The cut ratio is defined as the ratio of the corresponding sums of two different weights of edges along the cut boundary and models the mean affinity between the segments separated by the boundary per unit boundary length. This new cost function allows the image perimeter to be segmented, guarantees that the segments produced by bipartitioning are connected, and does not introduce a size, shape, smoothness, or boundary-length bias. The latter allows it to produce segmentations where boundaries are aligned with image edges. Furthermore, the cut-ratio cost function allows efficient iterated region-based segmentation as well as pixel-based segmentation. These properties may be useful for some image-segmentation applications. While the problem of finding a minimum ratio cut in an arbitrary graph is NP-hard, one can find a minimum ratio cut in the connected planar graphs that arise during image segmentation in polynomial time. While the cut ratio, alone, is not sufficient as a baseline method for image segmentation, it forms a good basis for an extended method of image segmentation when combined with a small number of standard techniques. We present an implemented algorithm for finding a minimum ratio cut, prove its correctness, discuss its application to image segmentation, and present the results of segmenting a number of medical and natural images using our techniques. 相似文献

Image segmentation using evolutionary computation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Image segmentation denotes a process by which a raw input image is partitioned into nonoverlapping regions such that each region is homogeneous and the union of any two adjacent regions is heterogeneous. A segmented image is considered to be the highest domain-independent abstraction of an input image. The image segmentation problem is treated as one of combinatorial optimization. A cost function which incorporates both edge information and region gray-scale uniformity is defined. The cost function is shown to be multivariate with several local minima. The genetic algorithm, a stochastic optimization technique based on evolutionary computation, is explored in the context of image segmentation. A class of hybrid evolutionary optimization algorithms based on a combination of the genetic algorithm and stochastic annealing algorithms such as simulated annealing, microcanonical annealing, and the random cost algorithm is shown to exhibit superior performance as compared with the canonical genetic algorithm. Experimental results on gray-scale images are presented 相似文献

A fast boundary finding algorithm is presented which works without threshold operation and without any interactive control. The procedure can be described as a hierarchical two-step algorithm. In the first step the image is divided into two disjunct regions, one of them including the whole object of interest.In the second step the problem of boundary finding is suggested as a classification problem, which means that for any pixel a four-dimensional feature vector is computed which allows classification of pixels into contour elements and any other pixels.The algorithm was tested on several thousand cell images and can be easily adapted to other problems by modification of a set of parameters. 相似文献

Image segmentation with directed trees 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Narendra PM Goldberg M 《IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence》1980,(2):185-191
This correspondence presents a simple algorithm to detect and label homogeneous areas in an image, using directed trees for region labeling. The scheme constructs directed trees with the image points as nodes, guided by an edge value computed at every point. These directed trees segment the image into disjoint regions. Because of a valley seeldng property of the tree construction procedure, the boundaries separating the resultant segments pass through the center of the edges. The algorithm thus performs wel1 with thick and wide edges of varying height, because no thresholding of the edge image is involved. The properties of the resultant segments are stated in terms of the edge image. The algorithm is shown to be simple, efficient, and effective for detecting homogeneous segments in the presence of noise. Results of application in the algorithm to segment a LANDSAT multispectral scene of an agricultural area are included. 相似文献

Multiresolution approaches to computer vision are able to rapidly detect and extract global structures from an image. In this paper we present (a) a pyramid-based algorithm that can detect the bimodality of the population of pixels in a grey level digital image and (b) a pyramid-based algorithm that maps the values of a bimodal population into two constant values which are approximately the means of the two component subpopulations. A population is considered bimodal if it can be divided into two component subpopulations whose variances are small relative to the population variance. An improvement to the above algorithm, which uses an iterative scheme, is also given, as well as some examples of segmented images. Both algorithms require processing times on the order of the logarithm of the population size. 相似文献

Picture segmentation is expressed as a sequence of decision problems with the framework of a split-and-merge algorithm. First regions of an arbitrary initial segmentation are tested for uniformity and if not uniform they are subdivided into smaller regions, or set aside if their size is below a given threshold. Next regions classified as uniform are subject to a cluster analysis to identify similar types which are merged. At this point there exist reliable estimates of the parameters of the random field of each type of region and they are used to classify some of the remaining small regions. Any regions remaining after this step are considered part of a boundary ambiguity zone. The location of the boundary is estimated then by interpolation between the existing uniform regions. Experimental results on artificial pictures are also included. 相似文献

基于图像显著性检测的图像分割 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
图像分割在许多图像处理和机器视觉问题中是一个非常重要的过程,是将一幅图分割成几个显著的区域,然而不能将其中最显著的目标直接分割出来,需要进一步处理。为此本文采用显著性检测的算法实现了对目标的分割。显著性区域检测可以应用于目标检测、图像检索、图像分割等机器视觉问题。使用杨等人提出的基于图论的流形排序算法检测显著性算法得到显著性图,再结合mean-shift分割算法,实现了对视觉显著性目标分割提取,可获得可观的图像分割结果,并将此算法应用到了森林火灾检测中,能对图像中的火焰部分进行有效的分割提取。 相似文献
