Embodiment three
The embodiment of the invention provides a kind of image partition method, and this image partition method is considered the area information of image edge information and image, makes that the image segmentation effect is better.
The image partition method of only having considered image edge information has been described in background technology, and the thinking of this method comprises:
The first step: adopt and set up energy equation, following formula (2-1):
Wherein, the arc length of L (C) expression closed curve C, L
R(C) be the curve energy functional of weighting arc length, g is the edge indicator function, and g can be chosen for following (2-2):
Wherein, I is image to be split,
Be gradient, K is selected constant.Need to prove that gradient is very big at the edge of image place, the value convergence of corresponding edge indicator function g zero (being g → 0).
Second step: minimization of energy equation (1-1), that is:
The physical significance of following formula (1-3) is: the weighting arc length at the closed curve C of place, image border is the shortest.
Find the solution the extreme value of following formula (1-3) functional (this functional replaces with E (I) for convenience of explanation) and can obtain the necessary condition of finding the solution the functional extreme value, that is: according to Euler-Lagrange equation (Euler-Lagrange function)
The 3rd step: verified for the partial differential equation (PDE, Partial Differential Equation) of following formula (2-4), adopting classical process of iteration for this partial differential equation is the gradient descent method, can get following curve evolvement equation:
K is curvature of curve in the formula (2-5), and N is normal to curve.
What need to describe in detail is that the physical significance of formula (2-5) comprising: at the image flat site, because g is close to 1, and
Be similar to zero, so formula (2-5) has only first on the right to work, this is simple contour curvature evolution equation; At the image border annex, because gradient is much larger than parameter K, so at this moment g has only back one to work close to zero.
Because
Direction always point to the direction that g increases, so no matter in interior of articles or outside,
Always point to the direction of leaving the edge.Supposition curve C (t) has moved near the edge of object now, and the method direction N of C (t) always points to the inside of curve in accordance with regulations.So, if the position of current curves is the outside that is in the border, so N will with
Direction is opposite, namely
For negative, thereby
Consistent with N, visible second effect at this moment is to make curve C (t) from the outside, border, to the direction motion on more close border.
In like manner, if the position of current curves is the inside that is in the border, so N will with
Direction is identical, namely
For on the occasion of, thereby
Opposite with N, visible second effect at this moment is to make C (t) from inside, border, to the direction motion on more close border.
By above reasoning as can be known, second behavior is the local maximum of curve C (t) being pushed to image gradient on the right of in the formula (2-5).
The 4th step: according to verified curve evolvement equation and the relation between the level set, the corresponding horizontal collected explanations or commentaries of formula (2-5) is:
φ is zero level collection curve in the formula (2-6).
The 5th step: the partial differential equation shown in the formula (2-6) is carried out discretize on the room and time, ((2-6) is converted into corresponding difference equation with formula, adopt iterative computation to obtain final numerical solution, the meaning of the numerical solution that this is final is: final numerical solution is the closed curve of split image.
Also need to illustrate the image partition method of only having considered image area information in the present embodiment, also claim the Chan-Vese Image Segmentation Model, the basic ideas of this method only consider that to above-mentioned the image partition method of image edge information is similar, and its key distinction is the energy function difference that arranges.Describe in detail with reference to as follows:
Suppose that C is the evolution curve, Ω is image-region, ω represent the to develop interior zone (inside (C)) of curve C, then the perimeter of curve C (outside (C)) be Ω ω (" " difference set of two set of symbology).For the characteristics of this model are described, lift a simple example: suppose image u

2Be defined as follows:
In order to calculate the corresponding Eulerian equation of zero level set function, Heaviside function H and Di Lake function δ are adjusted slightly, use H

The verified numerical solution for the partial differential equation shown in the formula (2-19) is that (2-19) is converted into corresponding difference equation with formula to formula (2-19) discretize on time and space, adopts iterative computation to obtain final numerical solution.
The image splitting scheme of above-mentioned explanation is the image partition method of considering image area information, i.e. Chan-Vese Image Segmentation Model.When handling ill-defined picture, can access good segmentation effect based on the image splitting scheme of image area information.
The embodiment of the invention provides a kind of image edge information of not only considering, also considers the image splitting scheme of the area information of image, can obtain the better pictures segmentation effect.Following is to describe in detail.
In the explanation about the Chan-Vese Image Segmentation Model, introduced, when considering factors such as arc length and area, total energy equation of supposing such as formula (2-9), first and second physical significance refers on the right of in the formula (2-9): under the identical situation of area, arc length is more short, and the expression curve is more smooth.Third and fourth is in order to guarantee that different zones can be divided into different parts on the right of in the formula (2-9).
In conjunction with the splitting scheme of only considering image edge information of above explanation with only consider the splitting scheme (being the Chan-Vese Image Segmentation Model) of the area information of image, ignore the slickness at edge.Can obtain following energy functional:
For in conjunction with Level Set Method, zero level collection curve φ and the curved profile C of above definition are associated, be defined as follows:
Introduce Heaviside function and Dirac function δ, they are defined as follows:
To including the function g definition of marginal information, can in the present embodiment g be defined as follows according to design to the g definition:
Therefore, the expression formula of the energy equation shown in the formula (2-20) is converted to following expression:
When other parameters fixedly the time, with respect to c
1, c
2Minimize following formula, can obtain:
Work as c
1, c
2In the time of fixedly, minimize above-mentioned partial differential equation with respect to φ, can obtain:
Numerical solution for the partial differential equation shown in the formula (2-26) is to formula (2-26) discretize on time and space, according to pixels be divided into image latticed, to be divided into several time periods Δ t the time, formula (2-26) is converted into corresponding difference equation (as formula (2-28)), adopts iterative computation to obtain final numerical solution.
Wherein, the Dirac function that adopts in real image is cut apart is as follows:
Wherein, adopt the Di Lake function of ε=1 in the present embodiment.Iterative process only needs simple difference, in the following way estimation:
Wherein,
Representative grid (i j) locates the level set function value of the n time iteration,
Be the value of the n+1 time iteration,
Represent the value on formula (2-26) equal sign right side.
In the usage level diversity method carries out process that image cuts apart, need to calculate each Δ t constantly, each net point in the full images scope is to the distance of current outline line, tries to achieve distance and be zero point
Connect all these then successively and put to regain new preliminary examination contour curve, so iterate to cut apart up to image and finish.
Above-mentioned is that the embodiment of the invention provides a kind of image edge information of not only considering, also considers the image splitting scheme of the area information of image.As shown in Figure 4, this scheme specifically comprises in the implementation of computing machine:
Step 301: initialization zero level collection profile is assumed to be φ
0
Wherein, initialization zero level collection profile φ
0It can be the closed curve of picked at random.
Step 302: at each Δ t constantly, the formula on computing formula (2-26) equal sign the right remembers that its value is
Wherein, in the formula (2-26), μ, λ, λ
1, λ
2Be the constant coefficient of selecting according to actual conditions, other parameter can be by obtaining pending image calculation in the formula (2-26).Need to prove that also the partial differential equation shown in the formula (2-26) is to be converted to by the energy equation that has comprised image edge information and image area information.Wherein, image edge information in the energy equation is represented by edge indicator function g, image area information in the energy equation is embodied by formula (2-7), can be understood as image area information and represents by the variance of curve interior zone and the variance of curve perimeter.
Step 303: according to formula (2-28), and known initialization zero level collection profile, iterative computation
For example: when initialization zero level collection profile is φ

Then
Can obtain easily with reference to following formula (2-29).
Step 304: zero level collection curve and the symbolic distance function that calculates according to current iteration regularly reinitializes level set function, according to the profile that reinitializes with calculate
And formula (2-29), iterative computation zero level collection curve;
It will be appreciated that in the calculating of step 303, level set function can be undergone mutation, in order to remedy the sudden change in the level set function evolutionary process, need periodically level set function be reinitialized to the level set function with the symbolic distance functional similarity.Timing initialization zero level collection profile in the step 304 is not picked at random, is according to the symbolic distance function each point on the image that represents level set to be carried out assignment again, thereby obtains the initialization contour curve.
Step 305: when
With

Embodiment four
The embodiment of the invention provides a kind of image partition method, this image partition method is similar to embodiment two, all consider image edge information, area information with image, the difference of this embodiment and embodiment two is, in iterative computation, need not in this example to reinitialize, increased computing velocity.
It will be appreciated that at first cut apart in the calculating at traditional images, level set function can be undergone mutation, in order to remedy the sudden change in the level set function evolutionary process, periodically level set function is reinitialized to the level set function similar to meeting distance function.The equation that reinitializes of standard is:
Wherein, φ
0Be level set function to be reinitialized, sign is-symbol distance function.The most algorithm that reinitializes is based on partial differential equation or its mutation.Yet there is shortcoming in these methods, namely work as φ
0And unevenness or φ
0One side when more precipitous than another side, the moving direction of zero level set function can be very inaccurate.Moreover, when level set function φ and symbolic distance function difference were very big, this moment, traditional Level Set Method was difficult to level set function is reinitialized to the symbolic distance function.In the evolutionary process of time, even iteration several times, level set function also is easy to deviate from the symbolic distance function, and is particularly short inadequately when step-length, deviates from easily.Therefore, the interval that reinitializes often can not be too of a specified duration.
Heavily initialization has extensively been applied to stablize evolution for keeping curve, and obtains good experimental result.But from angle of practice, heavy initialized process still too complicated, computing time is long.
More than about in the description that reinitializes as can be seen, the key in the evolution process is to keep level set function to be similar to the Fu Hai distance function, particularly the zero level collection near.As everyone knows, the symbolic distance function must satisfy
Otherwise function phi satisfies arbitrarily
Function can be expressed as the product of a symbolic distance function and a constant.In view of the symbolic distance function property, proposed as lower integral:
By introducing the compensation of internal energy P (φ), the level set function φ in the evolutionary process will maintain voluntarily and be similar to the symbolic distance function.Therefore, need not to reinitialize process.
In view of above-mentioned explanation, the basis of the energy equation (2-24) that the embodiment of the invention can propose at embodiment two proposes a kind of new energy equation:
For in conjunction with Level Set Method, zero level collection curve φ and the curved profile C of above definition are associated, be defined as follows:
Introduce Heaviside function and Dirac function δ, they are defined as follows:
To including the function g definition of marginal information, can in the present embodiment g be defined as follows according to design to the g definition:
Therefore, the expression formula of the energy equation shown in the formula (2-20) is converted to following expression:
When other parameters fixedly the time, with respect to c
1, c
2Minimize following formula, can obtain:
Work as c
1, c
2In the time of fixedly, minimize above-mentioned partial differential equation with respect to φ, can obtain:
Numerical solution for the partial differential equation shown in the formula (3-9) is to formula (3-9) discretize on time and space, according to pixels be divided into image latticed, to be divided into several time periods Δ t the time, formula (3-9) is converted into corresponding difference equation (as formula (3-11)), adopts iterative computation to obtain final numerical solution.
Wherein, the Dirac function that adopts in real image is cut apart is as follows:
Wherein, adopt the Di Lake function of ε=1 in the present embodiment.Iterative process only needs simple difference, in the following way estimation:
Wherein,
Representative grid (i j) locates the level set function value of the n time iteration,
Be the value of the n+1 time iteration,
Represent the value on formula (3-9) equal sign right side.
In the usage level diversity method carries out process that image cuts apart, need to calculate each Δ t constantly, each net point in the full images scope is to the distance of current outline line, tries to achieve distance and be zero point
Connect all these then successively and put to regain new preliminary examination contour curve, so iterate to cut apart up to image and finish.
Above-mentioned is that the embodiment of the invention provides a kind of image edge information of not only considering, also considers the image splitting scheme of the area information of image.As shown in Figure 5, this scheme specifically comprises in the implementation of computing machine:
Step 401: initialization zero level collection profile is assumed to be φ
0
Wherein, initialization zero level collection profile φ
0It can be the closed curve of picked at random.
Step 402: at each Δ t constantly, the formula on computing formula (3-9) equal sign the right remembers that its value is
Wherein, in the formula (3-9), μ, λ, λ
1, λ
2Be the constant coefficient of selecting according to actual conditions, other parameter can be by obtaining pending image calculation in the formula (3-9).Need to prove that also the partial differential equation shown in the formula (3-9) is by having comprised image edge information, image area information, and keep the energy equation of the internal energy P of level set function φ and symbolic distance approximation to function to be converted to.Wherein, the image edge information in the energy equation is represented that by edge indicator function g the image area information in the energy equation is embodied by formula (2-7), and image area information is represented by the variance of curve interior zone and the variance of curve perimeter.
Step 403: according to formula (3-11), and known initialization zero level collection profile, iterative computation
For example: when initialization zero level collection profile is φ
0, calculate by step 202
Then
Can obtain easily with reference to following formula (2-29).
Step 404: when
With
Value identical (perhaps approximate identical), then iteration finishes, otherwise continues next iteration.
The closed curve that the point that iteration acquires after finishing forms is cut apart image.
