Hierarchical Mergence Approach to Cell Detection in Phase Contrast Microscopy Images
Figure 1
Representation of phase contrast image and some experimental results. (a) The original phase contrast image is labeled as NO.500 in T24_xy6 image sequence of our datasets. The image shown is 1004 × 1004 pixels. (b) Otsu multithresholds (3 classes, 2 thresholds). (c) Otsu multithresholds (4 classes, 3 thresholds). (d) The color labeled result image based on marker-controlled watershed. (e) The outcome of active contour method with an initialization curve on the image boundary. (f) Graph cut initialization. (g) Graph cut result. (h) The result of superpixel method in gray intensity domain.
