Medical Image Segmentation

Abstract

Image segmentation is an essential but critical component in low level vision image analysis, pattern recognition, and in robotic systems.It is one of the most difficult and challenging tasks in image processing which determines the quality of the final result of the image analysis.Image segmentation is the process of dividing an image into different regions such that each region is homogeneous.Various image segmentation algorithms are discussed.Some examples in different image formats are presented and overall results discussed and compared considering different parameters.
