A complete automated algorithm for segmentation of tissues and identification of tumor region in T1, T2, and FLAIR brain images using optimization and clustering techniques

Tissues in brain are the most complicated parts of our body, a clear examination and study are therefore required by a radiologist to identify the pathologies. Normal magnetic resonance (MR) scanner is capable of producing brain images with bounded tissues, where unique and segregated views of the tissues are required. A distinguished view upon the images is manually impossible and can be subjected to operator errors. With the assistance of a soft computing technique, an automated unique segmentation upon the brain tissues along with the identification of the tumor region can be effectively done. These functionalities assist the radiologist extensively. Several soft computing techniques have been proposed and one such technique which is being proposed is PSO‐based FCM algorithm. The results of the proposed algorithm is compared with fuzzy C‐means (FCM) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms using comparison factors such as mean square error (MSE), peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), entropy (energy function), Jaccard (Tanimoto Coefficient) index, dice overlap index and memory requirement for processing the algorithm. The efficiency of the PSO‐FCM algorithm is verified using the comparison factors.     

加权均值滤波在机场跑道路面裂纹图像检测中的应用

图像去噪是图像处理中的一个重要环节。基于均值滤波和中值滤波的经典算法,结合数字图像处理技术,以拍摄的直升机机场跑道路面裂纹图像作为研究对象,提出了一种改进的加权均值滤波算法,并通过仿真给出了试验效果图及数据结果。结果表明：改进的加权均值滤波算法较传统均值滤波能更好地保护图像的细节,失真小,在去除噪声的同时较好地保留边缘等细节信息,降低了图像处理后的模糊化程度,优于经典的滤波算法。该研究为机场跑道路面裂纹图像检测提供了一种新方法。

Tumor detection in T1, T2, FLAIR and MPR brain images using a combination of optimization and fuzzy clustering improved by seed‐based region growing algorithm

Tumor and Edema region present in Magnetic Resonance (MR) brain image can be segmented using Optimization and Clustering merged with seed‐based region growing algorithm. The proposed algorithm shows effectiveness in tumor detection in T1 ‐ w, T2 – w, Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery and Multiplanar Reconstruction type MR brain images. After an initial level segmentation exhibited by Modified Particle Swarm Optimization (MPSO) and Fuzzy C – Means (FCM) algorithm, the seed points are initialized using the region growing algorithm and based on these seed points; tumor detection in MR brain images is done. The parameters taken for comparison with the conventional techniques are Mean Square Error, Peak Signal to Noise Ratio, Jaccard (Tanimoto) index, Dice Overlap indices and Computational Time. These parameters prove the efficacy of the proposed algorithm. Heterogeneous type tumor regions present in the input MR brain images are segmented using the proposed algorithm. Furthermore, the algorithm shows augmentation in the process of brain tumor identification. Availability of gold standard images has led to the comparison of the suggested algorithm with MPSO‐based FCM and conventional Region Growing algorithm. Also, the algorithm recommended through this research is capable of producing Similarity Index value of 0.96, Overlap Fraction value of 0.97 and Extra Fraction value of 0.05, which are far better than the values articulated by MPSO‐based FCM and Region Growing algorithm. The proposed algorithm favors the segmentation of contrast enhanced images. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Imaging Syst Technol, 27, 33–45, 2017
