Abstract:International audienceHomotopic grayscale thinning leads to " over-connected skeleton " when applied on noisy images. One way to avoid this phenomenon is the parametric thinning. It consists in relaxing the initial constraint by lowering low contrast crests, peaks and ends, according to a manually selected parameter and under the constraint of ascendant gray level processing. We propose to control this parameter by considering the lowering decision in a statistical framework of hypothesis test under the assump… 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.
