IP3 2022 – Image Processing (LOT 13761)

This lot is generally related to multilevel image segmentation to identify an object of interest from the background of the image. Techniques are disclosed to segment an object of interest from a background of an image by receiving a high-resolution original digital image. A set of partial labels with some pixels are labelled as object and other pixels are marked as background and few pixels as unlabeled. Also disclosed are techniques to reduce resolution of the partially labelled high-resolution image and both the image intensities. The system segments the reduced resolution image to convert the partial labelling on the reduced resolution image into a full labelling and generates a new high-resolution image with all pixels. The technology may be implemented in digital image processing, medical image processing, multilevel image segmentation, etc.
