Due to distortion, noise, segmentation errors, overlap, and occlusion of objects in digital images, it is usually impossible to extract complete object contours or to segment the ...
In this paper, we demonstrate that multiscale Bayesian image segmentation can be enhanced by improving both contextual modeling and statistical texture characterization. Firstly, ...
We address the difficult problem of segmenting the inflamed synovial tissue in multi-modal 3D MR sequences of the wrist. The complex morphology of the structures to segment, the...
In this paper, we propose a new nonparametric region-based active contour model for clutter image segmentation. To quantify the similarity between two clutter regions, we propose t...
This paper introduces a new framework for two-phase image segmentation, namely the Fuzzy Region Competition. A generic formulation is developed that extends in a convex way several...
