Description

Image segmentation method and system
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of image processing technologies, and in particular, to an image segmentation method and an image segmentation system.
Background
In the research and application of images, people often have interest in some parts of the images, and the interested parts generally correspond to specific areas (which may correspond to a single area or a plurality of areas) with special properties in the images, and are called targets or foregrounds; while the other part is referred to as the background of the image. In order to identify and analyze the target, the target needs to be isolated from an image, which is a problem to be studied in image segmentation. Image segmentation is a technique and process that divides an image into several specific regions with unique properties and proposes an object of interest. Image segmentation is a crucial pre-processing of image recognition and computer vision. Without a correct segmentation, a correct identification is not possible. However, the only basis for segmentation is the brightness and color of the pixels in the image, and the segmentation is handled automatically by a computer, which has various difficulties. For example, segmentation errors often occur due to uneven lighting, the influence of noise, the presence of unclear portions in an image, shadows, and the like. Image segmentation is therefore a technique that requires further investigation. It is desirable to introduce some artificial knowledge-oriented and artificial intelligence methods for correcting errors in some segmentations, which are promising approaches, but which add complexity to the problem. Image segmentation is a prerequisite for image understanding and recognition. As a basic link of image processing, the method is always a hotspot and difficult problem in the fields of image processing and computer vision. Active contour models implemented using a level set approach have received attention from a number of scholars in recent years.
There are three different approaches to image segmentation:
one is a pixel clustering method, i.e., a region method, in which each pixel is classified into a corresponding object or region;
the other is a boundary method for realizing segmentation by directly determining the boundary of the region;
and thirdly, detecting edge pixels, and connecting the edge pixels to form a boundary to form segmentation.
The level set method first proposed by Osher and Sethian: it is mainly based on curve evolution and level set theory. The basic idea of the level set is to embed an evolution curve or a curved surface of an image into a higher one-dimensional level set, convert the evolution curve of a high-dimensional curve or a curved surface into a high-dimensional partial differential equation, and obtain a final evolution curve by solving the partial differential equation. Mumford et al propose a geometric active contour model (Mumford-Shah, MS), which is a variational energy equation based on fracture mechanics and can be fractured and merged quickly in the evolution process, but the energy term of the MS model is difficult to find simple numerical approximation, thus hindering the development of the MS model.
Caseles et al propose a level set method based image segmentation model, geodesic Contour model (GAC), which enables topological changes of energy general functions based on a conventional model, but the initialization curve of the model must be completely inside or outside the target to be cut, otherwise topological structure changes cannot be naturally performed.
In 2001, Chan et al proposed a C-V model that added a penalty term including curve length and local area to the energy function, which was relatively good for images with noise, but for images with non-uniform gray levels, the C-V model based on global information of the image often did not have a good segmentation effect.
In order to overcome the problem that the conventional level set evolution needs to be initialized repeatedly, Li et al propose a distance normalized level set evolution (DRLSE) model without reinitialization, and the main idea is to add an internal energy penalty term into an energy function equation, wherein the internal energy penalty term ensures that a level set curve does not deviate too far from a symbol distance function in the evolution process and always remains as the symbol distance function or an approximate symbol distance function, so that the evolution curve does not need to be reinitialized. Although this method avoids re-initialization, when segmenting an image with complicated background information or uneven gray scale, the segmentation curve may deviate from the target region, and thus erroneous segmentation may occur.
Saliency detection is a research hotspot in the field of computers at present, and is used for selecting relevant contents (objects or regions) in a visual scene as a human eye visual attention region. The salient region detection can be used as a preprocessing stage of an image, and plays an increasingly important role in image retrieval, classification, image editing, image segmentation and the like. The saliency model can be divided into a top-down method and a bottom-up method, wherein the top-down method uses high-level information retrieval of images to obtain saliency values of the images, and the bottom-up method uses low-level information of the images, such as colors, distances and the like, to obtain the saliency values of the images. The existing salient region detection algorithm measures the significance of each image subregion by calculating the contrast ratio of each image subregion and an adjacent region in a certain range of the image subregion, and the salient region detection method plays a significant beneficial role in the following fields: image segmentation, object detection, content-preserving image scaling, etc.
Humans can quickly and accurately identify salient regions in the visual field. This ability to simulate humans on a machine is crucial to enabling a machine to process visual content like humans. Over the past few decades, a number of significant detection methods have been published publicly. Most of these methods tend to predict the visual fixation point of human eyes, and many methods have been proposed, for example, the method proposed by Itti et al extracts the color, direction, etc. of an image based on a bottom-up visual attention model to obtain a single saliency map of the image. Guo et al propose obtaining a saliency map of an image by computing the phase spectrum of a quaternary fourier transform of the image, each quadruple containing a set of colors, intensities and vectors.
The salient region detection algorithm classification method proposed by Borji et al in 2014 is that the salient object is detected by drawing the outline of the object. It can be seen that the bottom-up model is a trend of these years, and the top-down model is a model that is too complex because there is no a priori knowledge available and little information is available using visual attention.

Example one
Referring to fig. 1, a first embodiment of the present invention is: an image segmentation method based on salient region detection and level set, comprising the steps of:
s1: detecting a saliency region of a target image to obtain an initialized boundary curve of the target region; the target area in this embodiment is a salient area in the target image, and the target area is also a target to be segmented.
S2: generating a new energy function according to the energy function of the LIF model and the energy function of the DRLSE model;
s3: according to the new energy function and the preset iteration times, carrying out evolution on the initialized boundary curve to obtain an evolved boundary curve;
s4: and carrying out image segmentation according to the boundary curve after evolution.
In step S1, the saliency areas are the pixels that attract the most visual attention in the picture, and the criterion of saliency detection is as follows:
a. the most prominent objects that protrude;
b. highlighting the entire salient object consistently;
c. accurately conforming to the boundary of the object;
d. higher noise immunity;
e. full resolution.
In the embodiment, a saliency detection algorithm of a cellular automaton is adopted to detect the saliency region of the obtained target image. Specifically, step S1 includes the steps of:
s101: dividing a target image into N super pixels according to a simple linear iterative clustering algorithm; the Simple Linear Iterative Clustering (SLIC) algorithm is simple in structure, needs few parameters, and can effectively divide an image into pixel blocks with different sizes and shapes. The boundaries of the super-pixels are largely close to the boundaries of the objects in the figure, and each super-pixel is a representative area which not only contains the color and direction information of the bottom layer, but also contains the structure information of the middle layer. The super-pixel is used as a basic calculation unit to ensure that the final significance calculation result is more accurate in representing the boundary of the object. Further, in the present embodiment, the size of each super pixel is 9 × 9 pixels. Each super pixel represents a cell.
S102: dividing the super pixels positioned at the edge of the target image into K classes according to a K mean algorithm; preferably, K is 3, i.e. the superpixels located at the edge of the target image are divided into three classes.
S103: constructing K Global color difference maps (GCD) and a corresponding significant value matrix M, M [ M ] of the GCD according to the divided K classes of super pixelsk,i]K×N,mk,iThe significance value of the super pixel i in the kth global color difference image can be obtained by calculation according to a first formula;
the first formula:
Figure BDA0001310575890000101
wherein p iskThe total number of superpixels for the kth superpixel, K ═ 1,2, …, K, | di, dj |, the Euclidean distance in CILELAB color space for superpixel i and superpixel j, i ═ 1,2, …, N, σ1And β are preset constants, in this embodiment, σ1=0.2,β=10。
S104: and constructing a weight matrix W according to the space distance between each super pixel and the super pixel in the K-type super pixels.
K significant value matrices M are obtained in step S103; the obtained GCD graph based on edge clustering only cannot be satisfied, but each graph has some high-accuracy superpixels, and because the optimized superpixels have very large similarity, in order to optimize the GCD graph obtained based on edges, a weight matrix W is constructed as Wk,i]K×NTo balance the importance between different GCD graphs. Because the super pixel points of the image edge are connected with each other, the super pixel points of the image edge are taken as background seeds; w is ak,iThe spatial distance between the super pixel i and the kth type background seed, namely the super pixel in the kth type super pixel, can be obtained by calculation according to a second formula;
the second formula:
Figure BDA0001310575890000102
wherein r isiAnd rjThe coordinates of superpixel i and superpixel j (a superpixel contains a plurality of pixel points, the average value of all pixel points of each superpixel is used as the coordinate point of the superpixel), II ri, rj II are the Euclidean distance between superpixel i and superpixel j, sigma2Is a constant of the preset control weight, in the present embodiment, σ2=1.3。
S105: calculating to obtain a saliency map M according to the saliency value matrix M and the weight matrix Wbg,Mbg=[M1 bg,...,MN bg]T,Mi bgAnd calculating according to a third formula.
The third formula:
Figure BDA0001310575890000103
the spatial distance is used for constraining the GCD graph, the contrast of a local area can be enhanced, and therefore the accuracy of the significance value is improved. By effectively utilizing the advantages of different GCD maps, the saliency maps obtained based on the background are more convincing.
S106: defining the influence factor of a super-pixel on another super-pixel according to the adjacent relation and the space distance between the super-pixelsSub fi,jAnd an influence factor matrix F is constructed.
A neighbor cell of a cell is defined, including cells adjacent to it and cells sharing the same edge as the cells adjacent to it. Also we consider the superpixels at the edges of the image to be connected to each other, so they are all used as background seeds. The influence of the neighboring cells on the cells is not fixed. Intuitively, it is believed that if a neighboring cell has more similar color characteristics to a cell, the state of the cell at the next time will be more affected, and the similarity of any pair of cells is measured by the distance defined in the CIELAB color space.
Thus, by defining the influence factor f of a superpixel i on a superpixel ji,jTo construct an influence factor matrix F ═ Fi,j]N×N,fi,jCan be calculated according to a fourth formula;
the fourth formula:
Figure BDA0001310575890000111
fi,j=0,otherwise
wherein nb (i) is a set of neighboring superpixels (neighboring cells) of superpixel i (cell i), that is, when superpixel j is not a neighboring superpixel of superpixel i, the influence factor of superpixel i on superpixel j is 0; | di, dj | are Euclidean distances of superpixel i and superpixel j in CILELAB color space, σ3Is a preset parameter for controlling the similarity measure, in this embodiment, σ30.1. The size of F has no relation to the size of M or W.

the fifth formula: f ═ D-1F
S108: and calculating the confidence coefficient of the current state of each super pixel according to the influence factors in the influence factor matrix, and constructing a confidence coefficient matrix C.
Since the state of each cell at the next moment is determined by the current state and the state at the previous moment, it is necessary to balance these two determining factors. In color space, a super pixel and its neighbor super pixel have great difference, the state of its next time is mainly determined by the state of current time, then it is probably assimilated by local environment, so a confidence matrix C ═ diag { C is established1,c2,…cNTo better promote the update evolution of all cells, each cell has confidence c to its current time stateiCan be calculated according to a sixth formula;
the sixth formula:

And automatically updating the cells to the next more accurate and stable state by adopting the optimized confidence matrix C.
S110: according to the normalized influence factor matrix F and the optimized confidence coefficient matrix C, the saliency map M is subjected tobgCarrying out evolution updating to obtain a final saliency map of the target image;
and the normalized influence factor matrix F is used for measuring the influence degree of the super pixel by the neighbor super pixel, the optimized confidence coefficient matrix C is used for measuring the influence of the previous cell on the next cell, and the F and C are used for measuring the influence degree of the neighbor cell and the previous cell state on the current cell.
Specifically, the updating is performed according to an eighth formula;
eighth formula: mt+1=C*Mt+(I-C*)F*Mt
Wherein M istIndicating the update status of the current time, Mt+1Indicates the updated state at the next time, and is the initial state when t is 0, i.e., M0=MbgPredetermined N, determined by the characteristics of the image itselflT +1 time steps (N)lDetermined by the number N of superpixels), a final saliency map, i.e. a saliency region, is obtained.
S111: and obtaining an initialization boundary curve of the target area according to the final saliency map.
Based on the essential characteristics of most images, the super-pixels belonging to the foreground generally have similar color characteristics, and by utilizing the inherent relation of the neighboring super-pixels, the single-layer cellular automaton can strengthen the consistency of the significant values of similar areas and form a stable local environment. Secondly, the salient object and its surroundings have a large difference in color space, and a clear boundary between the object and the background naturally appears through the influence between similar neighboring superpixels. Cellular automata can well reinforce the foreground and suppress the background, so based on cellular automata, an intuitive update mechanism is designed to take advantage of the intrinsic connection of protruding objects through interaction with neighbors. This context-based propagation may improve any given most advanced result to a similar level of greater accuracy, with greater accuracy and recall.
Since the DRLSE model manually selects the initial segmentation curve, the initial segmentation curve must be outside or inside the object to be segmented, which results in an increase in segmentation time. In the embodiment, the rough outline of the target to be segmented is found by using the significance model based on the cellular automata principle, and then the outline of the significant region is used as an initial segmentation curve, so that the time is greatly saved, and the algorithm efficiency is improved.
For step S2, a Local Image Fitting (LIF) model is to construct an energy function using local gray scale information of the image. Local information of an image is extracted by adopting a Gaussian kernel function, two local self-adaptive functions are used for approximating average gray values inside and outside a contour, and an energy function is minimized to obtain a segmentation result. Assume that the target image is I: o → Ol(O represents the field of the image and l represents the dimension of the image I (x)). First, a local fitting term I is constructed at point xLIFThen by locally fitting an energy term I to x over the domain omegaLIFTaking integral to obtain an energy general function of the LIF model, as shown in a ninth formula; the local image fitting energy formula is shown as a tenth formula, wherein m is1、m2Calculating according to an eleventh formula;

And minimizing the energy general function of the LIF model to obtain a level set evolution equation of the LIF model, wherein the level set evolution equation is shown as a twelfth formula.
The twelfth formula:

the LIF model has a significant effect on image segmentation of a specific class, for example, the LIF model has a good effect on image segmentation of a weak boundary, but the LIF model has a disadvantage that a segmentation result depends on the size, shape, and position of an initial contour, and is likely to fall into a problem of local infinitesimal, so that an improper design of the initial contour may lead to an erroneous result.
The basic idea of active contour model (active contour model) is to use a continuous curve to express the target edge and define an energy functional such that its arguments include the edge curve, so that the segmentation process is transformed into a process of solving the minimum value of the energy functional, which is generally implemented by solving the euler (lagrange) equation corresponding to the function, and the position of the curve when the energy reaches the minimum is the contour of the target. The level set is a typical active contour model. However, the conventional level set model requires repeated initialization operations, which increases the time for evolution.
Therefore, the present embodiment further introduces a Distance Regularized Level Set Evolution (DRLSE) model.
The principle of the level set model is that an initial curve is continuously close to an edge through iteration, and finally an image is segmented. In the parameter active contour model, the curve evolution is realized by minimizing an energy function, and the level set method is to embed the curve into a 0 level set in a 3-dimensional curved surface, and then obtain the 0 level set from the curved surface after the evolution by evolving the curved surface in a 3-dimensional space, wherein the 0 level set is the curve after the evolution. By adding a punishment item in the level set function contour model, the principle signed distance function of the level set function in the evolution process is avoided, and meanwhile, a data item is also added, so that the evolution curve evolves towards the direction of the target contour curve. The method effectively avoids the problem that the level set function needs to be reinitialized in the evolution process. And the initialized level set function is not limited to a signed distance function, and the used iteration method also improves the calculation efficiency. However, a serious problem is that the image has a phenomenon of non-uniform gray scale. In order to overcome the initialization of the curve, a variational level set model which does not need repeated initialization is adopted, the model overcomes the problem that the diffusivity tends to infinity, a penalty term is added, the deviation between a level set function and a symbol distance is corrected, and the evolution speed of the curve is improved. The distance regularized energy general function is shown as a thirteenth formula;
a thirteenth formula: eDRLSE=μEP+Eext
Wherein E isPThe distance normalization term is added to ensure that the evolution curve is always kept or is close to a symbol distance function, and the expression of the distance normalization term is shown as a fourteenth formula; mu is a preset constant and is used for balancing the importance of distance normalization; eextThe method is an external energy function and ensures that the evolution curve can be well stopped in a target area.
A fourteenth formula:

Wherein, λ is greater than 0, α is a preset real number, the two parameters determine the proportion occupied by L (φ) and A (φ), and the expression of L (φ) and A (φ) is shown as a sixteenth formula;

Namely, L (phi) and A (phi) are defined; (x) The impact function is a univariate impact function and can be obtained according to a seventeenth formula; hω(x) Is a Heaviside function, which can be obtained according to the eighteenth formula;
a seventeenth formula:

Where R is a Gaussian distribution function with a standard deviation of σ, and σ is a scale parameter. g is a function of the properties of the image, and L (phi) evolves the curve towards the target region and stops the curve at the target. A (φ) determines the rate of evolution of the curve.
Therefore, by combining the sixteenth formula, the seventeenth formula and the eighteenth formula, the final evolution curve, namely the level set evolution equation of the DRLSE model, is obtained by taking the fastest descent speed process as the gradient flow, as shown in the nineteenth formula and the twentieth formula;
nineteenth formula:

where Δ represents the laplacian operator. The model has the greatest advantages that the problem that a traditional level set needs to be reinitialized is solved, a curve is close to a symbol distance function in the evolution process, the evolution principle is based on gradient information, the image edge localization effect is good, the local gradient information of an image is utilized without considering the global information of the image, the image edge is blurred by the model, the image segmentation effect with less local information is not good, and the convergence speed is slow. Therefore, the local information of the image is combined, the gradient information of the image is not only considered, and the obtained segmentation model has a good segmentation effect.
Based on the analysis, local information and gradient information are combined, LIF model and DRLSE model factors are introduced, and a new energy general function is generated, as shown in a twenty-first formula;

showing the evolution curve at the next time instant. It can be seen that increasing the step size can increase the evolution speed of the curve, and decreasing the step size can slow down the evolution speed of the curve.
For step S3 and step S4, the initialized boundary curve obtained in step S1, i.e., the saliency detection contour curve, is used as the initial contour curve, and a new evolution equation obtained in step S2 is used to guide the evolution of the curve. Finally, image segmentation is carried out according to the evolved curve
In the embodiment, the rough outline of the target to be segmented is found by using the significance model based on the cellular automata principle, and then the outline of the significant region is used as an initial segmentation curve, so that the time is greatly saved, and the algorithm efficiency is improved. A local information LIF method is added on the basis of a DRLSE method, the LIF method well uses detail information as an energy item, the DRLSE method adds gradient information into an energy equation as a penalty item, and therefore not only are the speed and the direction of evolution controlled, but also an evolution curve is well stopped on the boundary of a target area. The segmentation precision is well ensured by a level set method combining local information and gradient information, and images with complex background information and weak boundaries can be effectively segmented.
