Bifurcation of Segment Edge Curves in Scale Space

2012
In this paper, we aim to develop a criterion to select scale parameters, which control pre-smoothing for edge detection. We first formalise the Canny edge detector which extracts the zeros of bilinear form of the first- and the second-order derivatives of image intensity.

Localization Scale Selection for Scale-Space Segmentation

2005
In this work the relation between scale-space image segmentation and selection of the localization scale is examined first, and a scale selection approach is consequently proposed in the segmentation context. Considering the segmentation part, gradient watersheds are applied to the non-linear scale-space domain followed by a grouping operation.

Image segmentation using Scale-Space Random Walks

2009 16th International Conference on Digital Signal Processing, 2009
Many methods for supervised image segmentation exist. One such algorithm, Random Walks, is very fast and accurate when compared to other methods. A drawback to Random Walks is that it has difficulty producing accurate and clean segmentations in the presence of noise.

An Idempotent Scale-Space Approach for Morphological Segmentation

2005
This work constitutes a first approach on image segmentation based on the recently proposed morphological scale-space theory. We introduce an idempotent smoot hing operation, in the corresponding scale-space, and analyze some of its main features concerning the monotonicity of the image extrema and the way these extrema merge in a multiscale ...

Hierarchical segmentation using latent semantic indexing in scale space

2001 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing. Proceedings (Cat. No.01CH37221), 2002
This paper describes a new algorithm which discovers the hierarchical organization of a document or media presentation. We use latent semantic indexing to describe the semantic content of the signal, and scale-space segmentation to describe its features at many different scales. We present results from a text document and a video transcript.

Segmenting by Compression Using Linear Scale-Space and Watersheds

1999
Automatic segmentation is performed using watersheds of the gradient magnitude and compression techniques. Linear Scale-Space is used to discover the neighbourhood structure and catchment basins are locally merged with Minimum Description Length. The algorithm can form a basis for a large range of automatic segmentation algorithms based on watersheds ...

Segmentation in scale space

1995
A segmentation scheme based on tracing objects and borders through scale space is proposed. Scale space allows to create a hierarchical representation of input data which can be used to tessellate input space into objects with closed and orientable borders. For analyzing the structure of scale space, a neural network approach using synchronizing neural

Scale Space Technique for Word Segmentation in Handwritten Documents

1999
Indexing large archives of historical manuscripts, like the papers of George Washington, is required to allow rapid perusal by scholars and researchers who wish to consult the original manuscripts. Presently, such large archives are indexed manually.

Color image segmentation by scale-space image analysis

2007 International Conference on Wavelet Analysis and Pattern Recognition, 2007
An image analysis method has been proposed to segment color images. The method is capable of segmenting color images based on watershed transform and scale-space analysis of the images. We analyze hierarchical, geometric properties and the hue uniformity measure of the tree of scale-space and show the experimental results for several biological and ...

Fast Mumford-Shah segmentation using image scale space bases

SPIE Proceedings, 2007
Image segmentation using the piecewise smooth variational model proposed by Mumford and Shah is both robust and computationally expensive. Fortunately, both the intermediate segmentations computed in the process of the evolution, and the final segmentation itself have a common structure.
