Bone image segmentation is the important technology for computer aided bone diagnosis system and the foundation for three-dimensional visualization of the human skeleton. Agent searching edge detection algorithm for bone images is proposed. Based on neighbor region correlation and regional harmonic mean feature vector correlation, different species of agent accomplish searching bone edge and experimental results are satisfactory. Experimental results comparison about the proposed algorithm, Prewitt, Sobel, Log and Canny is illustrated that demonstrates the proposed algorithm has advantages in some respects.
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.
