Segmentation of Chromosome Spread Images using Discrete Cosine Transform Based Gradient Vector Flow Active Contours: An Analysis

A. Prabhu Britto and G. Ravindran

Abstract: In this study, segmentation of chromosome images is done using Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) based Gradient Vector Flow (GVF) active contours. The parameters used in the active contour formulation have been characterized standardized. The standardized values of the parameters are used in this study. The segmentation errors have been quantified. The analysis of the error quantification yields valuable insight into the performance of the DCT based GVF active contours as a segmentation tool for chromosome spread images.
