Image thresholding techniques introducing spatial information are widely used image segmentation. Some methods are used to calculate the optimal threshold by building a specific histogram with different parameters, such as gray value of pixel, average gray value and gradient-magnitude, etc. However, these methods still have some limitations. In this paper, an entropic thresholding method based on Gabor histogram (a new 2D histogram constructed by using Gabor filter) is applied to image segmentation, which can distinguish foreground/background, edge and noise of image effectively. Comparing with some methods, including 2D-KSW, GLSC-KSW, 2D-D-KSW and GLGM-KSW, the proposed method, tested on 10 realistic images for segmentation, presents a higher effectiveness and robustness.

Roughness set theory is a popular topic to use in color-image segmentation. A new popular color image segmentation algorithm is proposed by scientists with the point using traditional histogram and Histon construct roughness set histogram. But, there is still a problem about that is the correlativity of color vector in roughness set histogram, which take an inactive effect in the process of color-image segmentation. Therefore, this paper represents further research based on this and proposed an improved method proved through lot of experiments. The experimental result reduces the correlativity of color vector in roughness set histogram and calculation time remarkably.

In this study, we propose a method which is based on "Image segmentation by histogram thresholding using hierarchical cluster analysis"/HCA/ and "A nonparametric approach for histogram segmentation"/NHS/. HCA method uses that all histogram bins are one cluster then it reduces cluster numbers by using distance metric. Because this method has too many clusters, it is more computation. In order to eliminate disadvantages of "HCA" method, we used "NHS" method. NHS method finds all local minima of histogram. To reduce cluster number, we use NHS method which is fast. In our approach, we combine those two methods to eliminate disadvantages of Arifin method. The proposed method is not only less computational than "HCA" method because combined method has few clusters but also it uses local minima of histogram which is computed by "NHS".

본 논문에서는 T1 강조 영상, T2 강조 영상 그리고 PD 영상의 히스토그램 특징을 상호 보완적으로 이용한 영상 분할 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 분할 알고리듬은 3단계로 이루어지는데, 첫 번째 단계에서는 T1과 T2, PD 영상으로부터 각각의 대뇌 영상을 추출하고, 두 번째 단계에서는 대뇌 영상의 히스토그램에서 봉우리 범위를 추출하고, 마지막 단계에서는 클러스터링을 이용하여 대뇌 영상을 분할한다. 본 논문에서는 봉우리 범위에 따른 분할결과와 수행 시간을 비교하고 기존의 분할 방법에 의한 실험 결과와 수행시간을 비교하여 보이는데 제안한 방법의 분할결과가 기존의 방법에 의한 결과보다 더 나은 결과를 보임을 확인할 수 있었다.

Image segmentation is very important technique as preprocessing. It is used for various applications such as object recognition, computer vision, object based image compression. In this paper, a method which segments the multidimensional image using a hierarchical histogram approach, is proposed. The hierarchical histogram approach is a method that decomposes the multi-dimensional situation into multi levels of 1 dimensional situations. It has the advantage of the rapid and easy calculation of the histogram, and at the same time because the histogram is applied at each level and not as a whole, it is possible to have more detailed partitioning of the situation.

Image segmentation based on the curvature of bi-directiona distribution functions of histogram with no mode informations is proposed. The curvature is an oscillating function and can be approximated to a polynomial form with a least square method using the Chebyshev basis. Nonhomogeneous linea equations are solved by Gauss-elimination method. In the proposed algorithm, critical points of the curvature are obtained on each direction to compensate the segmentation parameters, which can be ignored in only one-directional histogram.

The object recognition is one of the major computer vision fields. The object recognition using features(SIFT) is finding common features in input images and query images. But the object recognition using feature methods has suffered of difficulties due to heavy calculations when resizing input images and query images. In this paper, we focused on speed up finding features in the images. we proposed method using block segmentation and histogram. Block segmentation used diving input image and than histogram decided correlation between each 1]lock and query image. This paper has confirmed that tile matching time reduced for object recognition since reducing block.

This paper presents a method for hand segmentation using depth information, and adaptive threshold by means of histogram analysis and color clustering in HSV color model. We consider hand area as a nearer object to the camera than background on depth information. And the threshold of hand color is adaptively determined by clustering using the matching of color values on the input image with one of the regions of hue histogram. Experimental results demonstrate 95% accuracy rate. Thus, we confirmed that the proposed method is effective for hand segmentation in variations of hand color, scale, rotation, pose, different lightning conditions and any colored background.

An local adaptive image segmentatin algorithm for local feature detection and effective clustering of unimodal histogram shape are proposed. Local adaptive difference image and its histogram are obtained from the input image. The parameters are derived from the histogram and used for the segmentation based on relaxatin process. The results showed effective region segmentation and good noise cleaning for the ocular fundus fluorescein angiogram which has low contrast and unimodal histogram.

세포 분할 작업은 세포 이미지의 배경으로부터 세포 영역을 추출하는 작업으로 배양과정에 있는 살아있는 세포를 이미지화하여 분석하는 바이오 이미징 분야에서 기초적인 작업들 중 하나이다. 선명한 이미지의 경우 바이모덜 히스토그램 분포를 가지므로 Otsu와 같은 전역임계값 알고리즘을 이용하여 쉽게 세포분할 작업을 수행할 수 있지만 희미한 이미지의 경우는 정확한 세포 분할을 하기가 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 입력된 세포이미지의 히스토그램을 분석하여 히스토그램 분포에 따라 분류한 후 바이모덜 분포를 가지는 이미지의 경우 전역임계값 알고리즘을 적용하고 유니모덜 분포를 가지는 이미지의 경우 영역을 분할하여 부분 영역별로 다른 임계값을 적용하는 새포 분할 시스템을 개발하였다. 실험결과 제안한 시스템은 바이모덜 분포를 가지는 세포이미지 뿐만 아니라 유니모덜 분포를 가지는 세포 이미지에 대해서도 정확한 세포 분할 작업을 수행하였다.
