Specific embodiment
Below with reference to attached drawing, technical solution of the present invention is described in detail.
It is in the image of Unimodal Distribution for intensity profile histogram, introduces certain property of neighborhood of pixels to carry out threshold value It determines.The present invention selects the gradient of pixel as research object, studies have shown that pixel gradient size reflects between different zones The size of otherness.By carrying out gradient calculating to each pixel in original image, and gradient value obtained is carried out Statistical analysis, the pixel gradient distribution histogram of drawing image, based on pixel gradient distribution histogram form determine it is optimal Segmentation threshold.As shown in Figure 1, the specific steps are as follows:
Step 1: the selection of gradient operator template
Sobel operator is by being assigned to different weighted values to the pixel at different location, thus the pixel made Gradient value is more accurate.Therefore, in the present embodiment, 3 × 3 Sobel template is selected to carry out subsequent pixel gradient value It calculates.
Step 2: the calculating of pixel gradient value
The minor matrix of Sobel operator template is moved on needing the image for carrying out gradient calculating, in each pixel point The place of setting carries out the gradient value that convolution operation calculates the pixel.
Step 3: the drafting of gradient distribution histogram
Statistics is overlapped to the gradient value of the pixel of different gray values, it is contemplated that the boundary pixel point between different zones Negligible amounts, it is extremely limited to the protrusion effect of boundary point in histogram even if being overlapped calculating to its gradient value.Cause This, is averaging processing the gradient value under each gray value in the present invention, its average gradient value is obtained, to eliminate pixel The influence of quantity.
Step 4: the determination of optimal segmenting threshold
Peak regions in image gradient distribution histogram correspond in image pixel in target and background borderline region, And valley regions then correspond to the pixel in the same area classification.Pixel corresponding with wave crest and trough is found out respectively There is a possibility that highest to be located at boundary and background for gray value, two gray values, in the present embodiment, the mean value of the two be taken to make For determining optimal threshold.
In the present embodiment, by the method for the present invention and existing three kinds of Threshold Segmentation Algorithms --- Otsu, MaxEntropy, Valley-Emphasis is compared, to verify effectiveness of the invention.
Select 4 picture (a) shown in Fig. 2, (b), (c), (d) as test picture, corresponding grey level histogram is such as (abscissa is gray value, and ordinate is frequency) shown in Fig. 3.4 test pictures are successively by Otsu, MaxEntropy, Valley- Segmentation figure after Emphasis algorithm process is as Figure 4-Figure 6.As can be seen that the threshold value mistake that Otsu and MaxEntropy is determined Greatly, a large amount of pixels is caused accidentally to be divided, and Valley-Emphasis algorithm is not sufficiently stable, and the segmentation of certain images is imitated Fruit can receive, and other image then there is a problem of identical as Otsu and MaxEntropy algorithm, namely illustrate Valley- The robustness of Emphasis algorithm is poor.
Then same test image is split using the present invention, process is as follows.
Firstly, obtaining the gradient map of image, brighter pixels point represents high gradient, and darker pixel represents low gradient, such as Fig. 7 It is shown.
Secondly, obtaining the gradient distribution histogram of image, (abscissa is gray value, and ordinate is average ladder as shown in Figure 8 Degree).
Again, top and lowest trough position are determined, obtains optimal threshold, as shown in Figure 9.
Finally, being split using determining threshold value to image, the results are shown in Figure 10.
, it is apparent that segmentation performance of the invention is substantially better than the segmentation result of other common threshold algorithms, it was demonstrated that The present invention is accurate and effective.
Embodiment is merely illustrative of the invention's technical idea, and this does not limit the scope of protection of the present invention, it is all according to Technical idea proposed by the present invention, any changes made on the basis of the technical scheme are fallen within the scope of the present invention.
