Deformable Boundary Finding Influenced by Region Homogeneity

Abstract

Accurately segmenting and quantifying structures is a key issue in biomedical image analysis. The two conventional methods of image segmentation, region-based segmentation and boundary finding, often suffer from a variety of limitations. We propose a method which endeavors to integrate the two approaches in an effort to form a unified approach that is robust to noise and poor initialization. Our approach uses Green's theorem to derive the boundary of a homogeneous region-classified area in the image and integrates this with a grey-level-gradient-based boundary finder. This combines the perceptual notions of edge/shape information with gray level homogeneity.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
