The paper deals with the improvement of irregular pyramid method for processing images of dispersed formations and other microscopic objects. The method is based on the natural aggregation of adjacent image areas from one pyramid level to another and can process noisy images of different sized objects with non uniform brightness. The developed method combines image segmentation, filtration and binarization operations.
There is made analysis of topological problems caused by applying the different types of pixels connectivity. Algorithms determining the adjacent image areas and internal hollows in connected pixel sets are designed on the basis of analysis. Proposed algorithms may be applied to local image segmentation. Using algorithms for constructing different hierarchical levels of Meer pyramid and dispersed formations images segmentation will provide more precise objects structure and avoid overdetalization.
There is proposed method for sliding window size evaluation for local segmentation methods applied to processing dispersion environments images by irregular pyramids method.
