This paper presents an algorithm for three-dimensional medical image segmentation based on the Contrast and Shape Constrained Local Binary Fitting improved model. Due to Local Binary Fitting model is sensitive to initialization and easy to fall into local extreme value, the new algorithm adds contrast constraint term to the Local Binary Fitting model, aiming at solving the common existed problem of inconsistent brightness and low contrast ratio. Adding shape constraint term can improve the original Local Binary Fitting model by constructing shape constraint energy field around the average shape by the level set method to deal with the leak of deformation curve. In order to promote the speed of model evolution, the kernel function is simplified. Two-dimensional Contrast and Shape Constrained Local Binary Fitting model is then extended to three-dimensional and a three-dimensional dental pulp image is segmented. Experimental results show that the segmentation accuracy, the connection degree and the efficiency of the new method are greatly improved compared to original LBF model.

Building extraction from high resolution remote sensing images is a hot research topic in the field of photogrammetry and remote sensing. However, the diversity and complexity of buildings make building extraction methods still face challenges in terms of accuracy, efficiency, and so on. In this study, a new building extraction framework based on MBI and combined with image segmentation techniques, spectral constraint, shadow constraint, and shape constraint is proposed. In order to verify the proposed method, worldview-2, GF-2, GF-1 remote sensing images covered Xiamen Software Park were used for building extraction experiments. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method improve the original MBI significantly, and the correct rate is over 86 %. Furthermore, the proposed framework reduces the false alarms by 42 % on average compared to the performance of the original MBI.
