Abstract
A method that achieves closed boundary finding in images (including slice images) with sub-pixel precision while enabling expression of sharp corners in that boundary is described. The method is a new extension to the well-known Marching Squares (MS) 2D isocontouring method that recovers sharp corner features that MS usually recovers as chamfered. The method has two major components: (1) detection of areas in the input image likely to contain sharp corner features, and (2) examination of image locations directly adjacent to the area with likely corners. Results of applying the new method, as well as its performance analysis, are also shown.
期刊介绍:
Machine GRAPHICS & VISION (MGV) is a refereed international journal, published quarterly, providing a scientific exchange forum and an authoritative source of information in the field of, in general, pictorial information exchange between computers and their environment, including applications of visual and graphical computer systems. The journal concentrates on theoretical and computational models underlying computer generated, analysed, or otherwise processed imagery, in particular: - image processing - scene analysis, modeling, and understanding - machine vision - pattern matching and pattern recognition - image synthesis, including three-dimensional imaging and solid modeling
