In this paper, a normalized cut method to segment tumor ultrasound image is proposed by means of simple linear iterative clustering for presegmentation procedure. The first step, we use simple linear iterative clustering algorithm to divide the image into a number of homogeneous over-segmented regions. Then, these regions are regarded as nodes, and a similarity matrix is constructed by comparing the histograms of each two regions. Finally, we apply the Ncut method to merging the over-segmented regions, then the image segmentation process is completed. The results show that the proposed segmentation scheme handles the strong speckle noise, low contrast, and weak edges well in ultrasound image. Our method has high segmentation precision and computation efficiency than the pixel-based Ncut method.展开更多

As a result,traditionally evaluating the reliability of equipment with a single model may lead to severer errors.However, if lifetime is divided into several different intervals according to the characteristics of its failure rate, piecewise fitting can more accurately approximate the failure rate of equipment. Therefore, in this paper, failure rate is regarded as a piecewise function, and two kinds of segmented distribution are put forward to evaluate reliability. In order to estimate parameters in the segmented reliability function, Bayesian estimation and maximum likelihood estimation（MLE） of the segmented distribution are discussed in this paper. Since traditional information criterion is not suitable for the segmented distribution, an improved information criterion is proposed to test and evaluate the segmented reliability model in this paper. After a great deal of testing and verification,the segmented reliability model and its estimation methods presented in this paper are proven more efficient and accurate than the traditional non-segmented single model, especially when the change of the failure rate is time-phased or multimodal. The significant performance of the segmented reliability model in evaluating reliability of proximity sensors of leading-edge flap in civil aircraft indicates that the segmented distribution and its estimation method in this paper could be useful and accurate.展开更多

In this paper, a coastal zone segmentation model is proposed based on Potts model. By introducing edge self-adaption parameter and modifying noisy data term, the proposed variational model provides a good solution for the coastal zone SAR image with common characteristics of inherent speckle noise and complicated geometrical details. However, the proposed model is difficult to solve due to to its nonlinear, non-convex and non-smooth characteristics. Followed by curve evolution theory and operator splitting method, the minimization problem is reformulated as a constrained minimization problem. A fast alternating minimization iterative scheme is designed to implement coastal zone segmentation. Finally, various two-stage and multiphase experimental results illustrate the advantage of the proposed segmentation model, and indicate the high computation efficiency of designed numerical approximation algorithm.展开更多

The main conclusions are: For the first order segmentation, the Xianshuihe fault zone can be divided into three major segments (the northwestern Luhuo-Qianning segment, the middle linking fracture region and the southeastern Kangding segment). Among them, the differences are not only in geometry and structure, but also in mechanical property and dynamics. Some of the characteristic morphologies on the Xianshuihe fault zone reflect the effects in cumulative deformation due to long-term fault movement, and reveal the fault segmentation in different orders. Such morphologies control, to some extent, the developments and the distributions of the earthquake ruptures on the fault zone.展开更多

文摘On the basis of the recent geological surveys and the relevant studies of the Xianshuihe fault zone, this paper analyzes the seismogenic mechanism of some faults and characteristic morphology on the fault zone by the boundary element method and discusses the fault segmentation and the related distribution of the earthquake ruptures. The main conclusions are: For the first order segmentation, the Xianshuihe fault zone can be divided into three major segments (the northwestern Luhuo-Qianning segment, the middle linking fracture region and the southeastern Kangding segment). Among them, the differences are not only in geometry and structure, but also in mechanical property and dynamics. Some of the characteristic morphologies on the Xianshuihe fault zone reflect the effects in cumulative deformation due to long-term fault movement, and reveal the fault segmentation in different orders. Such morphologies control, to some extent, the developments and the distributions of the earthquake ruptures on the fault zone.

文摘There are two types of methods for image segmentation.One is traditional image processing methods,which are sensitive to details and boundaries,yet fail to recognize semantic information.The other is deep learning methods,which can locate and identify different objects,but boundary identifications are not accurate enough.Both of them cannot generate entire segmentation information.In order to obtain accurate edge detection and semantic information,an Adaptive Boundary and Semantic Composite Segmentation method(ABSCS)is proposed.This method can precisely semantic segment individual objects in large-size aerial images with limited GPU performances.It includes adaptively dividing and modifying the aerial images with the proposed principles and methods,using the deep learning method to semantic segment and preprocess the small divided pieces,using three traditional methods to segment and preprocess original-size aerial images,adaptively selecting traditional results tomodify the boundaries of individual objects in deep learning results,and combining the results of different objects.Individual object semantic segmentation experiments are conducted by using the AeroScapes dataset,and their results are analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve more promising object boundaries than the original deep learning method.This work also demonstrates the advantages of the proposed method in applications of point cloud semantic segmentation and image inpainting.

文摘The visual noise of each light intensity area is different when the image is drawn by Monte Carlo method.However,the existing denoising algorithms have limited denoising performance under complex lighting conditions and are easy to lose detailed information.So we propose a rendered image denoising method with filtering guided by lighting information.First,we design an image segmentation algorithm based on lighting information to segment the image into different illumination areas.Then,we establish the parameter prediction model guided by lighting information for filtering(PGLF)to predict the filtering parameters of different illumination areas.For different illumination areas,we use these filtering parameters to construct area filters,and the filters are guided by the lighting information to perform sub-area filtering.Finally,the filtering results are fused with auxiliary features to output denoised images for improving the overall denoising effect of the image.Under the physically based rendering tool(PBRT)scene and Tungsten dataset,the experimental results show that compared with other guided filtering denoising methods,our method improves the peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR)metrics by 4.2164 dB on average and the structural similarity index(SSIM)metrics by 7.8%on average.This shows that our method can better reduce the noise in complex lighting scenesand improvethe imagequality.
文摘Using traditional particle tracking velocimetry based on optical flow for measuring areas with large velocity gradient changes may cause oversmoothing,resulting in significant measurement errors.To address this problem,the traditional particle tracking velocimetry method based on an optical flow was improved.The level set segmentation algorithm was used to obtain the boundary contour of the region with large velocity gradient changes,and the non-uniform flow field was divided into regions according to the boundary contour to obtain sub-regions with uniform velocity distribution.The particle tracking velocimetry method based on optical flow was used to measure the granular flow velocity in each sub-region,thus avoiding the problem of granular flow distribution.The simulation results show that the measurement accuracy of this method is approximately 10%higher than that of traditional methods.The method was applied to a velocity measurement experiment on dense granular flow in silos,and the velocity distribution of the granular flow was obtained,verifying the practicality of the method in granular flow fields.

文摘One of the evolving hand biometric features considered so far is finger knuckle printing,because of its ability towards unique identification of individuals.Despite many attempts have been made in this area of research,the accuracy of the recognition model remains a major issue.To overcome this problem,a novel biometric-based method,named fingerknuckle-print(FKP),has been developed for individual verification.The proposed system carries key steps such as preprocessing,segmentation,feature extraction and classification.Initially input FKP image is fed into the preprocessing stage where colour images are converted to gray scale image for augmenting the system performance.Afterwards,segmentation process is carried out with the help of CROI(Circular Region of Interest)and Morphological operation.Then,feature extraction stage is carried out using Gabor-Derivative line approach for extracting intrinsic features.Finally,DCNN(Deep Convolutional Neural Network)is trained for the processed knuckle images to recognize imposter and genuine individuals.Extensive experiments on standard FKP database demonstrates that the proposed method attains considerable improvement compared with state-of-the-art methods.The overall accuracy attained for the proposed methodology is 95.6%which is achieved better than the existing techniques.

文摘Water-soil leakage due to the longitudinal dislocation opening of tunnel segments in high-permeable soil strata is crucial for ensuring the longevity of underground tunnel infrastructures.This research delves into this complex phenomenon employing coupled computational fluiddynamics(CFD),discrete element method(DEM),and finiteelement method(FEM),considering varied tunnel buried depths and dislocation opening sizes.Two critical areas susceptible to water-soil leakage have been identified,including an‘ellipsoid’shaped area at the tunnel top and a soil sliding area perpendicular to the tunneling direction.With a narrow segment opening(3 d_(50)),the fineloss remains below 2%across various buried depths,whereas it escalates to 7.4%-30%with increasing buried depth under a slightly wider opening(3.8d_(50)).The proposed three-dimensional(3D)ellipsoid model is used to delineate the leakage region and quantify over 98%ground soil loss due to dislocation opening.Furthermore,the research reveals that soil sliding induced by water-soil leakage significantly decreases the structural shear stress on the waists and inverts of the tunnel segment,while the soil arching at the top of the tunnel would mitigate the stress release,particularly at the lower dislocated tunnel segment.
