Abstract
Aiming to solve the problem of low efficiency in manually recognizing the red and white cells in stool microscopic images, we propose an automatic segmentation method based on iterative corrosion with marker-controlled watershed segmentation and an automatic recognition method based on support vector machine (SVM) classification. The method first obtains saliency map of the images in HSI and Lab color spaces through saliency detection algorithm, then fuses the salient images to complete the initial segmentation. Next, we segment the red and white cells completely based on the initial segmentation images using marker-controlled watershed algorithm and other complementary methods. According to the differences in geometrical and texture features of red and white cells such as area, perimeter, circularity, energy, entropy, correlation and contrast, we extract them as feature vectors to train SVM and finally complete the classification and recognition of red and white cells. The experimental results indicate that our proposed marker-controlled watershed method can help increase the segmentation and recognition accuracy. Moreover, since it is also less susceptible to the heteromorphic red and white cells, our method is effective and robust.
