Due to the popularity of visual-based information in the forms of images and videos, more computer vision systems take part in the automation of diverse applications, such as medical diagnosing, monitoring and security. Segmentation is a necessary step in almost every pattern recognition and computer vision system. As the spectrum of the applications expands, the demand for an accurate and fast segmentation process increases.
In this talk we present an algorithm for image segmentation, that is based on the multiresolution analysis and the well known expectation maximisation algorithm. Based on the distribution of the information contained in the image, the multiresolution analysis is used to re-represent the image in a mosaic of different resolutions. Within this new re-representation the irrelevant information is suppressed in the segmentation process. The image is then modelled to be generated by a statistical field. The expectation maximisation algorithm is used to find the missing parameters of the model. A magnetic resonance image and many synthetic images were used for testing and evaluating the algorithm. The experiments show its robustness against noise.

New Media Systems is...
Our New Media Systems research theme aims to show how new media devices, standards, architectures and concepts can change the nature of learning.
Our work involves the development of short life-cycle working prototypes of innovative technologies or concepts that we believe will influence the future of open learning within a 3-5 year timescale. Each new media concept is built into a working prototype of how the innovation may change a target community. The working prototypes are all available (in some form) from this website.
Our prototypes themselves are not designed solely for traditional Open Learning, but include a remit to show how that innovation can and will change learning at all levels and in all forms; in education, at work and play.
