Abstract:Abstract. This paper describes a new aerial images segmentation algorithm. The algorithm is based upon the knowledge of image multi-scale geometric analysis which can capture the image's intrinsic geometrical structure efficiently. The Contourlet transform is selected to represent the maximum information of the image and obtain the rotation invariant features of the image. A modified Mumford-Shah model is built to segment the aerial image by a necessary level set evolution. To avoid possible local minima in th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
