On Boundary Pixels in Seeded Region Growing Segmentation

摘要：

Boundary pixels can have a subtle but serious impact on the performance of the seeded region growing algorithm 1, a fast semi-automatic algorithm for segmentation of intensity images. We have found, however,that as originally described the algorithm can fail if some sections of a connected segment is narrow. The failure results, for example, in a loss of details or an undue dependence of seed placement. The remedy is a careful processing of the boundary pixels. We here present an algorithm whose performance is not affected by such situation.
