Abstract | Seeded image segmentation is a popular type of supervised image segmentation in computer vision and image processing. Previous methods of seeded image segmentation treat the image as a weighted graph and minimize an energy function on the graph to produce a segmentation. In this paper, we propose to conduct the seeded image segmentation according to the result of a heat diffusion process in which the seeded pixels are considered to be the heat sources and the heat diffuses on the image starting from the sources. After the diffusion reaches a stable state, the image is segmented based on the pixel temperatures. It is also shown that our proposed framework includes the RandomWalk algorithm for image segmentation as a special case which diffuses only along the two coordinate axes. To better control diffusion, we propose to incorporate the attributes (such as the geometric structure) of the image into the diffusion process, yielding an anisotropic diffusion method for image segmentation. The experiments show that the proposed anisotropic diffusion method usually produces better segmentation results. In particular, when the method is tested using the groundtruth dataset of Microsoft Research Cambridge (MSRC), an error rate of 4.42% can be achieved, which is lower than the reported error rates of other state-of-the-art algorithms. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
