Paracalanus parvus and P. indicus collected in Korean coastal waters were redescribed to clarify taxonomical confusion. They showed the significant morphological difference in the $2nd\~4th$ swimming legs. In P. parvus the outer distal edge of 3rd segment of exopod of $2nd\~4th$ swimming legs is not serrated. The 1st basipodite has no spinules on the surface. In P. indicus the outer distal edge of 3rd segment of exopod of End and 3rd swimming legs is serrated, while that of the 4th swimming leg is not. This species has the 1st basipodite with a lot of spinules on the surface.

This paper proposes a new approach to extract contour of moving object from compressed video stream. We segment the area of moving object by using motion vector and extract the motion object block from it. And then we describe the connectivity direction of outline moving block, detect the edge related to connectivity direction in the block and finally obtain the contour by connecting the edges. This can divide the moving object only with motion vector and detect the exact contour on the basis of the edge automatically. Also, we can reduce spending time using motion block and remove the noise with directional edge. The experimental results demonstrate the accurate and effective qualify of the proposed method.

This paper presents an algorithm for acquisition of linear segments of building from edge pixels using Kalman filtering. We can obtain the accurate position of building corners from the linear segments of building. The corner points are used to calculate the position of building corners in world coordinate using stereo vision technique. The algorithm has been applied to pairs of stereo aerial images and the result showed accurate linear segment detection from edge pixels of roof boundaries.

This paper presents an efficient block segmentation and classification using the edge information of the document image. We extract four prominent features form the edge gradient and orientaton, all of which, and thereby the block clssifications, are insensitive to the background noise and the brightness variation of of the image. Using these four features, we can efficiently classify a document image into the seven categrories of blocks of small-size letters, large-size letters, tables, equations, flow-charts, graphs, and photographs, the first five of which are text blocks which are character-recognizable, and the last two are non-character blocks. By introducing the clumn interval and text line intervals of the document in the determination of th erun length of CRLA (constrained run length algorithm), we can obtain an efficient block segmentation with reduced memory size. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can rigidly segment and classify the blocks of the documents into the above mentioned seven categories and classification performance is high enough for all the categories except for the graphs with too much variations.

In this paper, it can propose that Fuzzy Wavelet Morphology Neural Networks for the edge detection algorithm with being robustly a unclear boundary parts by brightness difference and being less sensitivity on direction to be detected the edges of images. This is applying the Fuzzy Wavelet Morphology Operator which can be simple the image robustly without the loss of data to DTCNN Structure for improving defect which carrys out a lot of operation complexly. Also, this color image can segment Y image with YCbCr space color model which has a lossless feature information of edge boundary sides effectively. This paper can offer the simulation of color images of 50ea for the performance verification of the proposal algorithm.

In this paper, an image segmentation method which is based on edge salience map and region merging is presented. The edge salience map is calculated by combining a texture edge map with a color edge map. The texture edge map is computed over multiple spatial orientations and frequencies by using Gabor filter. A color edge is computed over the H component of the HSI color model. Then the Watershed transformation technique is applied to the edge salience map to and homogeneous regions where the dissimilarity of color and texture distribution is relatively low. The Watershed transformation tends to over-segment images. To merge the over-segmented regions, first of all, morphological operation is applied to the edge salience map to enhance a contrast of it and also to find mark regions. Then the region characteristics, a Gabor texture vector and a mean color, in the segmented regions is defined and regions that have the similar characteristics, are merged. Experimental results have demonstrated the superiority in segmentation results for various images.

Specialists diagnose skin cancer using a dermatoscopy to detect skin cancer as early as possible, but it is difficult to determine accurate skin lesions because skin lesions have various shapes. Recently, the skin lesion segmentation method using deep learning, which has shown high performance, has a problem in segmenting skin lesions because the boundary between healthy skin and skin lesions is not clear. To solve these issues, the proposed method constructs a transformer block to effectively segment the skin lesion, and constructs an edge decoder for each layer of the network to segment the skin lesion in detail. Experiment results have shown that the proposed method achieves a performance improvement of 0.041 ~ 0.071 for Dic Coefficient and 0.062 ~ 0.112 for Jaccard Index, compared with the previous method.

In this paper. we present methods that extract lung regions from chest EBT(electron beam tomography) images then segment the extracted lung region into lung lobes. We use histogram based thresholding and mathematical morphology for extracting lung regions. For detecting pulmonary fissures, we use edge detector and knowledge-based search method. We suggest this edge detector, which uses adaptive filter scale, to work very well for real edge and insensitive for edge by noise. Our experiments showed about 95% accuracy or higher in extracting lung regions and about 5 pixel distance error in detecting pulmonary fissures.

A fine segmentation algorithm is proposed for extracting objects in an image, which have both weak boundaries and highly non-convex shapes. The image has simple background colors or simple object colors. Two concepts, geometric attraction-driven flow (GADF) and edge-regions are combined to detect boundaries of objects in a sub-pixel resolution. The main strategy to segment the boundaries is to construct initial curves close to objects by using edge-regions and then to make a curve evolution in GADF. Since the initial curves are close to objects regardless of shapes, highly non-convex shapes are easily detected and dependence on initial curves in boundary-based segmentation algorithms is naturally removed. Weak boundaries are also detected because the orientation of GADF is obtained regardless of the strength of boundaries. For a fine segmentation, we additionally propose a local region competition algorithm to detect perceptible boundaries which are used for the extraction of objects without visual loss of detailed shapes. We have successfully accomplished the fine segmentation of objects from images taken in the studio and aphids from images of soybean leaves.

Aiming at the problem of low accuracy in the water boundary automatic extraction of islands from GF-2 remote sensing image with high resolution in three bands, new water edges automatic extraction method in island based on GF-2 remote sensing images, genetic algorithm (GA) method, is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the GA-OTSU threshold segmentation algorithm based on the combination of GA and the maximal inter-class variance method (OTSU) was used to segment the island in GF-2 remote sensing image after pre-processing. Then, the morphological closed operation was used to fill in the holes in the segmented binary image, and the boundary was extracted by the Sobel edge detection operator to obtain the water edge. The experimental results showed that the proposed method was better than the contrast methods in both the segmentation performance and the accuracy of water boundary extraction in island from GF-2 remote sensing images.
