Object’s Border and Position Allocating in an X-Ray Image

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper is concerned with an algorithm of determining a position of an object and its borders in an X-Ray image. The algorithm is based on a preliminary estimation of a histogram of given image. The information retrieved from estimation provides complementary parameters for further edge detection. As a result, this approach allows reducing the processing time. The future research and development of the algorithm will be aimed at object tracking in real-time systems.
