or boundaries within an image. Image segmentation plays a crucial role in many
medical imaging applications. Brain image segmentation is one of the most important
parts of clinical diagnostic tools. Brain images mostly contain noise, inhomogeneity
and sometimes deviation. Therefore, accurate segmentation of brain images is
a very difficult task. However, the process of accurate segmentation of these
images is very important and crucial for a correct diagnosis by clinical tools.
There are many algorithms and techniques have been developed to solve image
segmentation problems. Spectral pattern is not sufficient in high resolution
image for image segmentation due to variability of spectral and structural information.
Thus the spatial pattern or texture techniques are used. Thus, the concept of
holder exponent for segmentation of high resolution medical image is an efficient
image segmentation technique. The proposed method is implemented in MATLAB and
verified using various kinds of high resolution medical images. The experimental
results shows that the proposed image segmentation system is efficient than
the existing segmentation systems.]]>Birgani, P.M., M. Ashtiyani and S Asadi,20082008pp: 15Huang, C.Y. and M.J. Wu,20062006Rhemann, C., C. Rother, A. Rav-Acha and T. Sharp,20082008Glasner, D., T.
