Image binarization is a task to convert gray-level images into bi-level ones. Its underlying notion can be simply thought of as threshold selection. However, the result of binarization will cause significant influence on the process of image recognition or understanding. In this paper we discuss a new binarization method, named CMB (connectionist model binarization), which uses the connectionist model. In the method a gray-level histogram is input to a multilayer network trained with the back-propagation algorithm to obtain a threshold which gives a visually suitable binarized image. From the experimental results, it was verified that CMB is an effective binarization method in comparison with other methods.

To make B ultrasound images clear, a new image enhancement method was studied.The study used an improved fuzzy algorithm based on gray-level to process B ultrasound images. And the process is largely simple by adding threshold selection which could meet different clinical demand. Several kinds of enhancement algorithms for B ultrasound images are evaluated and compared by using MATLAB to process the same image. The results after contrast show that the improved fuzzy algorithm is effective and achieved in clinical practice.
