A Novel Virtual Vector Field Method for Image Segmentation Inspired by Physical Electro-Static Force

Abstract:

A novel vector field transform is proposed for digital images, which is inspired by the electro-static analogy. By introducing the factor of gray-scale difference into the repulsion vector between image points, the diffusing vector field is obtained by the transform. A new image segmentation method is then presented based on the diffusing vector field. The experimental results have proved the method’s effectiveness.
