Abstract
The invention provides an image level set segmentation method based on local gray clustering characteristics. The method comprises the steps that images to be segmented are read; linear weighting and fitting bias fields of orthogonal basis functions are used, and the weight value of each basis function is initialized; the level set function set of the images is initialized; the energy functional of image level set segmentation is established, and level set segmentationcontrol parameters are set according to the images to be segmented; a clustering center set, the image level set function set and basis function weight column vectors are respectively updated until meeting the stop criterion for iteration so that the energy functional of iteration is obtained; the subordinating degree function of the images, i.e. the segmentation result of the images to be segmented, is constructed according to the currently updated image level set function set, and bias fieldestimation of the images to be segmented is obtained according to the updated basis function weight column vectors and basis function column vectors. According to the method, the adverse impacts of weak boundary, image noise and gray inconsistency on the accuracy of image segmentation can be overcome by the method so that the method has the effect of image gray correction.
Description
technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of computer vision, pattern recognition, image processing and analysis, and in particular relates to an image level set segmentation method based on local gray-scale clustering features. Background technique [0002] Image segmentation plays an important role in the fields of computer vision, pattern recognition, and image processing. Its purpose is to divide the image into multiple regions of interest, and the pixels in each region form an object of interest with specific shape and structural characteristics. Although it has been studied for many years and a variety of segmentation methods have been proposed, it is still a challenge to segment objects of interest from images with complex structures in the presence of noise and gray-scale offset fields. The level set segmentation method transforms the image segmentation into an energy minimization problem of the energy functional defined on the level set fu...
