Problems solved by technology

Segmentation of image sequences by existing methods generally only considers the relationship between pixels on the two-dimensional level, while ignoring the continuity between images in each layer, thus losing more context information
[0003] For example, the traditional algorithm based on threshold segmentation is simple in principle, and image segmentation is achieved by manually traversing to select the best threshold; however, its calculation process is complex, susceptible to noise interference, and poor in robustness
The algorithm based on edge detection is to detect the edge points in the picture first, and then connect them into contours according to a certain strategy to form a segmented area; its disadvantage lies in the contradiction between noise resistance and detection accuracy, so the obtained segmentation is often intermittent and inconsistent. complete structural information
