This paper proposes a new image processing algorithm to recognize korean documents. It take out the region of syllable area from input character image, then it makes recognition of a consonant and a vowel in the character. A precision segmentation is very important to recognize the input character. The input image has 8-bit gray scaled resolution. Not only the shape but also vertical and horizontal lines dispersion graph are used for segmentation. Theresult shows a higher accuracy of character segmentation.

This paper proposes a method utilizing image compression and transmission method for image segmentation in order to reduce the time required in the process of analyzing the image information that has in the image compression process. Many studies of existing with respect to the image segmentation are being studied as a way to split a lot of a particular part in the image. We divide full image into the N equal parts. And it is compressed using the field coding. This will reduce the time-consuming than using the conventional method.

Vegetation segmentation in a field color image is a process of distinguishing vegetation objects of interests like crops and weeds from a background of soil and/or other residues. The performance of the process is crucial in automatic precision agriculture which includes weed control and crop status monitoring. To facilitate the segmentation, color indices have predominantly been used to transform the color image into its gray-scale image. A thresholding technique like the Otsu method is then applied to distinguish vegetation parts from the background. An obvious demerit of the thresholding based segmentation will be that classification of each pixel into vegetation or background is carried out solely by using the color feature of the pixel itself without taking into account color features of its neighboring pixels. This paper presents a new pixel-based segmentation method which employs a multi-layer perceptron neural network to classify the gray-scale image into vegetation and nonvegetation pixels. The input data of the neural network for each pixel are 2-dimensional gray-level values surrounding the pixel. To generate a gray-scale image from a raw RGB color image, a well-known color index called Excess Green minus Excess Red Index was used. Experimental results using 80 field images of 4 vegetation species demonstrate the superiority of the neural network to existing threshold-based segmentation methods in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and harmonic mean.

영상 분할 (Image Segmentation)은 패턴 인식, 환경 인식, 문서 분석을 위한 영상 처리 과정에서 가장 기본적인 단계이다. 영상 분할 방법들 중 Otsu의 영상의 정규화된 히스토그램의 분포 정보를 이용하여 클래스 간의 분산을 최대화 시키는 임계치값을 결정하는 자동 임계치값 선정방법이 가장 잘 알려진 방법이다. Otsu의 방법은 영상의 전 영역에 대한 히스토그램을 분석함으로써 영상의 부분적인 특성을 반영하여 임계치값을 결정하기는 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 이 어려움 해소하기 위하여 Context Fuzzy c-Means 알고리즘을 이용하여 영상을 여러 개의 부분 영역으로 나누고, 정의된 부 영역에 영상 분할 기법을 적용함으로써 부 영역들에 적합한 여러 개의 임계치값을 계산함으로써 영상 분할 성능을 개선하고자 하였다.

프랙탈 영상 부호화의 새로운 응용 분야인 프랙탈 영역 분할법의 YST방법은 주기점에 의한 라벨 붙이기와 프랙탈 변환에 의한 라벨 수정을 병용한 영역 분할법을 제안하였다. 그러나 이 개선법은 영역 분할의 질적인 개선은 가능하였으나, 여전히 라벨 붙이기와 라벨 수정의 과정에서 중복성이 남아 있다. 이 문제점의 해결방안으로 본 논문에서는 궤도에 따른 라벨 붙이기와 프랙탈 변환의 반복 과정에 관한 제약 조건을 제안한다.

Image segmentation is the task of partitioning an image into multiple sets of pixels based on some characteristics. The objective is to simplify the image into a representation that is more meaningful and easier to analyze. In this paper, we apply deep-learning to pre-train the learning model, and implement an algorithm that performs image segmentation in real time by extracting frames for the stream input from the Android device. Based on the open source of DeepLab-v3+ implemented in Tensorflow, some convolution filters are modified to improve real-time operation on the Android platform.

In order to improve the edge segmentation effect of the level set image segmentation and avoid the influence of the initial contour on the level set method, a saliency level set image segmentation model based on local Renyi entropy is proposed. Firstly, the saliency map of the original image is extracted by using saliency detection algorithm. And the outline of the saliency map can be used to initialize the level set. Secondly, the local energy and edge energy of the image are obtained by using local Renyi entropy and Canny operator respectively. At the same time, new adaptive weight coefficient and boundary indication function are constructed. Finally, the local binary fitting energy model (LBF) as an external energy term is introduced. In this paper, the contrast experiments are implemented in different image database. The robustness of the proposed model for segmentation of images with intensity inhomogeneity and complicated edges is verified.

This paper is to propose image segmentation method based on chamfer algorithm. First, we get original image from CCD camera and transform it into gray image. Second, we extract maximum gray value of background and reconstruct and eliminate the background using surface fitting method and bilinear interpolation. Third, we subtract the reconstructed background from gray image to remove noises in gray image. Fourth, we transform the subtracted image into binary image using Otsu's optimal thresholding method. Fifth, we use morphological filters such as areaopen, opening, filling filter etc. to remove noises and isolated points. Sixth, we use chamfer distance or Euclidean distance to this filtered image. Finally, we use watershed algorithm and count microorganisms in image by labeling. To prove the effectiveness, we apply the proposed algorithm to one of Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, Acinetobacter sp. It is shown that both Euclidean algorithm and chamfer algorithm show over-segmentation. But Chamfer algorithm shows less over-segmentation than Euclidean algorithm.

본 연구에서는 인체 상반신영상에서 얼굴부위를 분할하기 위한 영상분할 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 HWT를 적용하여 영상의 경계를 이루는 차분영상인 고주파대역과 평균영상인 저주파대역으로 분리하고, 저주파대역에서 고립점과 돌출부위, 경계중복점을 제거하였다. 또한 제안한 경계검출 알고리즘으로 경계를 검출하고 단순화시켰으며, 1픽셀 단위의 세선화과정을 통하여 경계를 선명하게 하였다. 그리고 제안 한 폐곡선추적 알고리즘으로 얼굴부위 경계만을 추출한 뒤, 마스크를 구성하고 원영상과의 정합을 통하여 얼굴부위분할을 하였다. 제안한 알고리즘을 적용하여 얼굴부위 분할실험을 실행한 결과 95.88%의 분할값을 갖는 얼굴분할이 이루어졌다.

In this paper, we propose an efficient WBC 14-Diff classification which performs using the WBC-ResNet-152, a type of CNN model. The main point of view is to use Super-pixel for the segmentation of the image of WBC, and to use ResNet for the classification of WBC. A total of 136,164 blood image samples (224x224) were grouped for image segmentation, training, training verification, and final test performance analysis. Image segmentation using super-pixels have different number of images for each classes, so weighted average was applied and therefore image segmentation error was low at 7.23%. Using the training data-set for training 50 times, and using soft-max classifier, TPR average of 80.3% for the training set of 8,827 images was achieved. Based on this, using verification data-set of 21,437 images, 14-Diff classification TPR average of normal WBCs were at 93.4% and TPR average of abnormal WBCs were at 83.3%. The result and methodology of this research demonstrates the usefulness of artificial intelligence technology in the blood cell image classification field. WBC-ResNet-152 based morphology approach is shown to be meaningful and worthwhile method. And based on stored medical data, in-depth diagnosis and early detection of curable diseases is expected to improve the quality of treatment.
