Book Clustering Techniques for Image Segmentation

Download or read book Clustering Techniques for Image Segmentation written by Fasahat Ullah Siddiqui and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-29 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the workings of major clustering techniques along with their advantages and shortcomings. After introducing the topic, the authors illustrate their modified version that avoids those shortcomings. The book then introduces four modified clustering techniques, namely the Optimized K-Means (OKM), Enhanced Moving K-Means-1(EMKM-1), Enhanced Moving K-Means-2(EMKM-2), and Outlier Rejection Fuzzy C-Means (ORFCM). The authors show how the OKM technique can differentiate the empty and zero variance cluster, and the data assignment procedure of the K-mean clustering technique is redesigned. They then show how the EMKM-1 and EMKM-2 techniques reform the data-transferring concept of the Adaptive Moving K-Means (AMKM) to avoid the centroid trapping problem. And that the ORFCM technique uses the adaptable membership function to moderate the outlier effects on the Fuzzy C-meaning clustering technique. This book also covers the working steps and codings of quantitative analysis methods. The results highlight that the modified clustering techniques generate more homogenous regions in an image with better shape and sharp edge preservation. Showcases major clustering techniques, detailing their advantages and shortcomings; Includes several methods for evaluating the performance of segmentation techniques; Presents several applications including medical diagnosis systems, satellite imaging systems, and biometric systems.

Book Image Segmentation by Clustering

Download or read book Image Segmentation by Clustering written by Guy Barrett Coleman and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation describes a procedure for segmenting imagery using digital techniques and is based on the mathematical model. The classifer does not require training prototypes, that is, it operates in an unsupervised mode. The procedure is general in that the features most useful for the particular image to be segmented are selected by the algorithm. The algorithm operates without any human interaction. The features used are based on brightness and texture in regions centered on every picture element in the image. To perform an elementary pre-classification of local regions, a filter based on the mode of the local area histogram is proposed and used in segmenting images. The basic procedure is a K-means clustering algorithm which converges to a local minimum in the average squared inter-cluster distance for a specified number of clusters. The algorithm iterates on the number of clusters, evaluating the clustering based on a parameter of clustering quality. The parameter proposed is a product of between and within cluster scatter measures, which achieves a maximum value that is postulated to represent an intrinsic number of clusters in the data.

Book Laws of Seeing

    Book Details:
  • Author : Wolfgang Metzger
  • Publisher : MIT Press
  • Release : 2009-08-21
  • ISBN : 0262513366
  • Pages : 231 pages

Download or read book Laws of Seeing written by Wolfgang Metzger and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2009-08-21 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first English translation of a classic work in vision science from 1936 by a leading figure in the Gestalt movement, covering topics that continue to be major issues in vision research today. This classic work in vision science, written by a leading figure in Germany's Gestalt movement in psychology and first published in 1936, addresses topics that remain of major interest to vision researchers today. Wolfgang Metzger's main argument, drawn from Gestalt theory, is that the objects we perceive in visual experience are not the objects themselves but perceptual effigies of those objects constructed by our brain according to natural rules. Gestalt concepts are currently being increasingly integrated into mainstream neuroscience by researchers proposing network processing beyond the classical receptive field. Metzger's discussion of such topics as ambiguous figures, hidden forms, camouflage, shadows and depth, and three-dimensional representations in paintings will interest anyone working in the field of vision and perception, including psychologists, biologists, neurophysiologists, and researchers in computational vision—and artists, designers, and philosophers. Each chapter is accompanied by compelling visual demonstrations of the phenomena described; the book includes 194 illustrations, drawn from visual science, art, and everyday experience, that invite readers to verify Metzger's observations for themselves. Today's researchers may find themselves pondering the intriguing question of what effect Metzger's theories might have had on vision research if Laws of Seeing and its treasure trove of perceptual observations had been available to the English-speaking world at the time of its writing.
