Description

Automatic threshold segmentation method for low-quality shoe print image
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of digital image processing, in particular to an automatic shoe print image segmentation method which can effectively improve the phenomenon of mistaken segmentation of the traditional global threshold segmentation under the condition of low acquisition quality, and has high segmentation accuracy and good real-time property.
Background
Shoe printing is one of the most common traces on crime scenes, and is also one of the important bases for the reconnaissance to find out clues to solve a case, reveal and confirm the crime. In the shoe print image processing, people often only need to extract a specific shoe print part, and hardly pay attention to the background area. In this case, it is necessary to segment the shoe print portion from the image.
A case will contact two types of shoe print images during the reconnaissance process:
Figure 100002_DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
crime showingThe extracted pattern remains as an image of the shoe print left behind by the perpetrator. The shoe print texture pattern in the image is greatly influenced by the ground texture, the difficulty of automatic segmentation by a computer is high, and at present, a manual segmentation mode is mainly adopted.
Figure 100002_DEST_PATH_IMAGE002
And (4) locking shoe print images of criminal suspects in the process of solving a crime. The image is imaged by a pressing die, the contrast between the texture of the shoe print and the background is obvious, and the automatic segmentation by a computer is convenient.
Segmentation based on global threshold is one of the most classical and popular image segmentation methods, and is also the simplest one. The basic idea is to find one or several gray threshold values according to the gray histogram of the image, divide the gray level of the image into several levels, and consider the pixels at the same gray level to belong to the same object. The threshold segmentation is particularly suitable for images with different gray level ranges of the target and the background, is simple in calculation, does not need manual intervention, and is widely applied to application occasions with high requirements on operation efficiency. However, for a class of images with small gray scale difference, small difference between the gray scale values of the target and the background, and complicated illumination conditions, the segmentation result is not satisfactory. Especially, when the die imaging device is aged or used for too many times, the phenomenon of underexposure, overexposure or imprint residue occurs in the shoe print image, and the typical automatic threshold segmentation algorithm cannot accurately separate the shoe print pattern from the background.
Although a plurality of image segmentation algorithms are proposed at present, a general image segmentation algorithm suitable for complex illumination conditions does not exist, and particularly, an automatic shoe print image segmentation algorithm which is high in accuracy, good in real-time performance and free of manual interaction is lacked.

Step 7, removing by using a morphological noise reduction methodI 4Medium area is less thanA8-connected foreground regions of individual pixels, thereby eliminatingI 4The separated foreground of the point distribution finally obtains the segmented shoe print image

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the technical characteristics that: firstly, the illumination influence caused by overexposure or underexposure and the false prospect caused by imprint residue caused by equipment aging can be eliminated, and the prospect target, namely the shoe mark, is well reserved; secondly, the shoe print images can be automatically processed in batch without manual interaction, the time efficiency is obviously superior to that of a manual shoe print image segmentation method and an iterative segmentation method (such as an image segmentation method based on a partial differential equation), and the segmentation accuracy is higher than that of a traditional global threshold segmentation method and an iterative segmentation method.
