AVLSM: Adaptive Variational Level Set Model for Image Segmentation in the Presence of Severe Intensity Inhomogeneity and High Noise

Intensity inhomogeneity and noise are two common issues in images but inevitably lead to significant challenges for image segmentation and is particularly pronounced when the two issues simultaneously appear in one image. As a result, most existing level set models yield poor performance when applied to this images. To this end, this paper proposes a novel hybrid level set model, named adaptive va...
