Deep Upscale U-Net for automatic tongue segmentation

Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing
In a treatment or diagnosis related to oral health conditions such as oral cancer and oropharyngeal cancer, an investigation of tongue's movements is a major part. In an automatic measurement of such movement, it must first start with a task of tongue segmentation.

Tongue image segmentation via thresholding and clustering

2017 10th International Congress on Image and Signal Processing, BioMedical Engineering and Informatics (CISP-BMEI), 2017
Tongue diagnosis is widely used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Tongue image segmentation plays a key role in developing an automatic tongue diagnosis system. To achieve tongue image segmentation (i.e., extraction of tongue body), we propose a method based on image thresholding and image clustering.

Tongue Image Segmentation Based on Fuzzy Rough Sets

2009 International Conference on Environmental Science and Information Application Technology, 2009
The paper studied a new theory of fuzzy rough sets, and presented a method to segment tongue image. It presented an algorithm of Fuzzy Rough Clustering Based on Grid by the theory. The algorithm extracts condensation points by the theory of fuzzy rough sets, and quarters the data space layer by layer, and softens the edge of the dense block by drawing ...
