摘要
针对灰度分布不均匀的图像特征,提出一种基于局部和全局高斯分布拟合能量的自适应权重参数选择方法。基于图像的局部和全局区域信息,以高斯分布作为拟合函数建立能量泛函。基于水平集方法,随着活动轮廓的演化,局部和全局区域信息在能量泛函中的权重会相应地变化,有利于提高图像分割的质量和效率。数值实验验证了该方法的有效性。
For the images characteristic with intensity inhomogeneity, this paper proposed an adaptive weight parameter selection method for local and global Gaussian distribution fitting energy. Based on the local and global region information of images, we established the energy function by employing the Gaussian distribution as the fitting function. According to the level set method, with the evolution of the active contour, the weight of the local and global region information in the energy function changed accordingly, which was conducive to improving the quality and efficiency of the image segmentation. Numerical experiments demonstrated the effectiveness of this method.
