Circular histogram thresholding is a novel color image segmentation method, which makes full use of the hue component color information of the image, so that the desired target can be better separated from the background. Maximum entropy thresholding on circular histogram is one of the exist circular histogram thresholding methods. However, this method needs to search for a pair of optimal thresholds on the circular histogram of two-class thresholding in an exhaustive way, and its running time is even longer than that of the existing circular histogram thresholding based on the Otsu criteria, so the segmentation efficiency is extremely low, and the real-time application cannot be realized. In order to solve this problem, a recursive algorithm of maximum entropy thresholding on circular histogram is proposed. Moreover, the recursive algorithm is extended to the case of multiclass thresholding. A large number of experimental results show that the proposed recursive algorithms are more efficient than brute force and the existing circular histogram thresholding based on the Otsu criteria.

This paper presents a color image segmentation method for the quantification of viable cells from samples obtained after cytocentrifugation process and May Grunwald Giemsa (MGG) coloration and then observed by optical microscopy. The method is based on color multi-thresholding and mathematical morphology processing using color information on human visual system based models such as CIELAB model, LUX (Logarithmic hUe eXtension) model and CoLIP (Color Logarithmic Image Processing) model, a new human color vision based model also presented in this article. The results show that the CoLIP model, developed following each step of the human visual color perception, is particularly well adapted for this type of images.

Automatic Algorithm

A new heuristic algorithm for porosity segmentation for the colored petro-graphic images is proposed. The proposed algorithm automatically detects the porosities that represent the presence of oil, gas, or even water in the analyzed thin section rock segment based on the colour of the porosity area filled with dies in the analyzed sample. For the purpose of the oil exploration, the thin section fragments are died in order to emphasize the porosities that are analyzed under the microscope. The percentage of the porosity is directly proportional to the probability of the oil, gas, or even water presence in the area where the drilling is performed (i.e. the increased porosity indicates the higher probability of oil existence in the region). The proposed automatic algorithm shows better results than the existing K-means segmentation method.

Novel Approach

Forests provide various important things to human life. Fire is one of the main disasters in the world. Nowadays, the forest fire incidences endanger the ecosystem and destroy the native flora and fauna. This affects individual life, community and wildlife. Thus, it is essential to monitor and protect the forests and their assets. Nowadays, image processing outputs a lot of required information and measures for the implementation of advanced forest fire-fighting strategies. This work addresses a new color image segmentation method based on principal component analysis (PCA) and Gabor filter responses. Our method introduces a new superpixels extraction strategy that takes full account of two objectives: regional consistency and robustness to added noises. The novel approach is tested on various color images. Extensive experiments show that our method obviously outperforms existing segmentation variants on real and synthetic images of fire forest scenes, and also achieves outstanding performance on other popular benchmarked images (e.g., BSDS, MRSC). The merits of our proposed approach are that it is not sensitive to added noises and that the segmentation performance is higher with images of nonhomogeneous regions.
