Feature Extraction and Recognition of Medical CT Images Based on Mumford-Shah Model by Lumin Fan, Lingli Shen, Xinghua Zuo

“…The Mumford-Shah curve evolution model solves the image segmentation by finding the minimum of the energy generalization of its model to obtain the optimal result of image segmentation, so for solving the minimum of the Mumford-Shah model, we first optimize the discrete problem of the energy generalization of the model by the convex relaxation technique and then use the Chambolle-Pock pairwise algorithm We then use the Chambolle-Pock dual algorithm to solve the optimization problem of the model after convex relaxation and finally obtain the image segmentation results. …”
