The bias field is an undesirable image foible that formulate during the process of image procurement. Segmentation is the procedure of segregating a digital image into constituent component or substantial segments which help in extracting quality amount of information from the region of interest. There is several bias correction strategies have been recommended till date, all these algorithms helps in reducing bias but none of them perfectly removes bias. When incorporating computer aided diagnosing in treatment planning, the leftover bias cause to inaccurate segmentation which leads to faulty diagnosis of the diseases. This paper scrutinizes the segmentation algorithms over bias corrupted brain MR Images and analyzes which segmentation algorithm efficiently segments the image components even though it is corrupted by bias field. The bench mark brain MR Images with different bias spectrum is employed for the research. Quantitative metrics are adopted to conclude the result. The outcome of this paper tends to provide accuracy in computer aided diagnosing and to elect appropriate segmentation technique while developing bias correction based segmentation algorithm.

Abstract


The bias field is an undesirable image foible that formulate during the process of image procurement. Segmentation is the procedure of segregating a digital image into constituent component or substantial segments which help in extracting quality amount of information from the region of interest. There is several bias correction strategies have been recommended till date, all these algorithms helps in reducing bias but none of them perfectly removes bias. When incorporating computer aided diagnosing in treatment planning, the leftover bias cause to inaccurate segmentation which leads to faulty diagnosis of the diseases. This paper scrutinizes the segmentation algorithms over bias corrupted brain MR Images and analyzes which segmentation algorithm efficiently segments the image components even though it is corrupted by bias field. The bench mark brain MR Images with different bias spectrum is employed for the research. Quantitative metrics are adopted to conclude the result. The outcome of this paper tends to provide accuracy in computer aided diagnosing and to elect appropriate segmentation technique while developing bias correction based segmentation algorithm.
