Because the image fire smoke segmentation algorithm can not extract white, gray and black smoke at the same time, a smoke image segmentation algorithm is proposed by combining rough set and region growth method. The R component of the image is extracted in the RGB colour space, the roughness histogram is constructed according to the statistical histogram of the R component, and the appropriate valley value in the roughness histogram is selected as the segmentation threshold, the image is roughly segmented. Relative to the background image, the smoke belongs to the motion information, and the motion region is extracted by the interframe difference method to eliminate static interference. Smoke has a unique colour feature, a smoke colour model is created in the RGB colour space, the motion disturbances of similar colour are removed and the suspected smoke areas are obtained. The seed point is selected in the region, and the region is grown on the result of rough segmentation, the smoke region is extracted. The experimental results show that the algorithm can segment white, gray and black smoke at the same time, and the irregular information of smoke edges is relatively complete. Compared with the existing algorithms, the average segmentation accuracy, recall rate and F-value are increased by 19%, 21.5% and 20%, respectively.<br /><br />

Although great progress has been made in vessel segmentation, the existing methods still can not accurately segment small vessels. A novel vessel segmentation and automatic diagnosis in coronary angiography image was proposed. During vessel segmentation, a new vessel function based on Hessian matrix was put forward. Then the vessel contour was extracted by the dual-stage region growing with automatic selection of seed point. Next, the automatic diagnosis was realized by vessel skeleton extraction, skeleton point search and diameter measurement. The experimental results demonstrate that our proposed vessel segmentation can extract the main branch contour accurately and have a good effect on the enhancement and segmentation of small vessels. The automatic diagnosis of vessel stenosis is fast. With a relatively accurate diagnosis result, it can provide a good reference and quantitative basis for the final judgment of the doctor.


Tumor volume estimation is a significant prognostic part of the Glioma tumor detection. Reliable assessment of Glioma tumor segmentation and volume estimation is a common problem in clinical aspects. We aim to propose a tumor segmentation method by suggesting suitable estimator for MR brain tumor volume construction. Run length algorithm is used to automatic initialize the seed point to the region growing algorithm. Region growing algorithm works with a threshold value using 8 × 8 patches. In this experiment includes thirty BraTS2013 high-grade and low-grade Glioma datasets. Proposed method yield 80.12% of Dice similarity with 6.8% of deviation and 84% of accuracy with 10% of deviation. The proposed work uses six state-of-the-art volume detectors to estimate the size of tumor volume. From the results, Cavalieri’s estimator gives more accurate results with less deviation

<em><span>A </span><span lang="IN">building can be known by look shape, color, and texture. Building can be detected by using many method. Region growing is one simple segmentation method because only use seed point. Before segmentation, the image must be preprocessing include sharpening, binerization by otsu method. Sharpening for clarify image and otsu method changed image valued 0 and 1. Next step is post-preprocessing include segmentation using region growing and opening closing operation. And the last process is detection building where building of detection will be signed. In this research, we present region growing for building segmentation by using both area and perimeter as a important variable in the region growing. Value of area more than 10 and perimeter is more than 50 are produced most of building.</span></em>
