| Abstract | In this paper, we present two models for supervised scalar image segmentation based on the active contours and information theory. First we propose to carry out a region competition by optimizing an energy designed to be minimal when the entropy of the inside and outside regions of the evolving active contour are close to those of a reference image. The probability density functions (pdfs) used by this model can be computed in a preprocessing step on a reference image. This substantially reduces the computational complexity making this model fast. On the other hand, this implies that the reference image and the image to segment have similar pdfs. When the pdfs are too different or both images are not from the same modality we propose a second segmentation model computationally more expensive but more robust to intensity differences. This second model is based on an information measure extensively used for image registration, the joint entropy. The performance of both models is demonstrated on a variety of 2D synthetic data and medical images. They are also compared in term of segmentation accuracy and computational cost with an entropy-based unsupervised segmentation model recently proposed. |

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.
