Abstract | An efficient level-set model driven by the local Gaussian mixture model (GMM) and split Bregman method is proposed for image segmentation. Firstly, the two intensity fitting functions in the original local binary fitting (LBF) model are pre-estimated by using a local GMM-based intensity distribution estimator before curve evolution. The benefit of this pre-computation strategy is to avoid updating the fitting functions at each step of the curve evolution, and it also overcomes the initialisation problem of common gradient descent-based active contour models, i.e. the level-set function can be initialised as an arbitrary random matrix instead of a signed distance function in the proposed processing framework. Secondly, two processing ideas named global convex segmentation (GCS) method and split Bregman are introduced into the numerical implementation, where the role of GCS is to transform the proposed model into a simplified convex segmentation model, and the purpose of the split Bregman is to quickly output a convergent solution of the newly derived convex segmentation model in an alternate iterative format. Experimental results for synthetic and real images of different modalities with inhomogeneity or homogeneity validate the desired performances of the proposed method in terms of accuracy, robustness, and rapidity. |

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.
