Vein Image Segmentation Based on One-Dimentional Gray and Filter Erosion Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

For the low contrast and serious noises, a fast image segmentation method based on one-dimensional gray segmentation, binary morphology erosion and area elimination is proposed. Since veins are thin and long, the vein image can be easily distinguished from background by judging the gray difference from nearby pixels when they are vertically or horizontally scanned. Then the processed image is diposed with erosion and area elimination to filter the noise. According to test results on the hand vein images which got from the equipment constructed by ourselves, it is proved that the method is more suitable for hand vein image segmentation than others and clear vein images can be botained quickly.
