Feature Scale

The level set method can segment symmetrical or asymmetrical objects in real images according to image features. However, the segmentation performance varies with feature scale. In order to improve the segmentation effect, we propose an improved level set method on the multiscale edges, which combines the level set method with image multi-scale decomposition to form a unified model. In this model, the segmentation relies on multiscale edges, and the multiscale edges depend on multiscale decomposition. A novel total variation regularization is proposed in multiscale decomposition to preserve edges. The multiscale edges obtained by the multiscale decomposition are integrated into the segmentation process, and the object can be easily extracted from a proper scale. Experimental results indicate that this method has superior performance in precision, recall and F-measure, compared with relative edge-based segmentation methods, and is insensitive to noise and inhomogeneous sub-regions.

Pdf Estimation

Remotely sensed imagery with high spatial resolution often shows serious intra-class spectral variations and details disturbances. This leads to disadvantages on automatic image classification. To increase accuracy of classification, this paper presents a novel multiphase level set method by an optimization of probability density function(pdf) estimation using Total Variation(TV). Specifically, density estimation method using Total Variation originally from image denoising is introduced to well improve “roughness” of pdf caused by spectral variations and details disturbances. Then, the optimized pdf is used to improve Mansouri’s model so as to alleviate local minimum solutions and to further increase classification accuracy. Evidential experiments on IKONOS, QuickBird-2 satellite imagery have demonstrated that our proposed density estimation method is very effective and robust even if in complex scene. Consequently, the improved multiphase level set model has yielded a great increase in classification accuracy. The classification result is more approaching to that of human vision interpretation.
