We propose novel thinning conditions for grayscale 3D images that do not rely on image thresholding or segmentation. The resulting grayscale skeletonization routine extracts a top...
This paper introduces an effective initialization approach for segmentation using the Chan-Vese model. The initial curve is found by searching among the extremals of the fidelity ...

In this paper, we propose two new support vector approaches for ordinal regression, which optimize multiple thresholds to define parallel discriminant hyperplanes for the ordinal ...
This paper introduces a binarization method based on edge for video text images, especially for images with complex background or low contrast. The binarization method first detec...
We present a fast edge-preserving cascadic multilevel image restoration method for reducing blur and noise in contaminated images. The method also can be applied to segmentation. O...
