The application discloses an
infrared image segmentation method based on a local region self-organizing
mapping algorithm, which comprises the following steps: firstly, a local region self-organizing
mapping algorithm is designed, a plurality of feature bias fields are extracted by moving a local sliding window before iterative evolution of a
level set, and a plurality of feature local data driving terms are constructed under a multiplicative
bias field model framework; secondly, a plurality of feature global data driving terms are calculated, and a plurality of feature
hybrid data driving terms are constructed through an adaptive weight function; then, an adaptive regularization function is used to regularize an energy value range of the plurality of feature
hybrid data driving terms, and an initial
level set is driven to perform iterative evolution; then, in the iterative process of the
level set, a
hyperbolic tangent function is used to keep the level set in the iterative evolution, and a symbol rule feature of positive outside and negative inside and a distance rule feature with a modulus value of 1 are kept; meanwhile, a mean filter template is used to continuously smooth the level set and eliminate redundant non-
boundary contour lines; finally, a
gradient descent method is used to continuously iteratively solve a minimum value of an energy function until a convergence criterion of the level set is reached or a maximum iteration number is reached, and then the method is stopped, at this time, a position of a zero level set is output, and
image segmentation is completed. The local region self-organizing
mapping algorithm can accurately mine a foreground contour from an
infrared image, and has good segmentation speed and precision.
