Abstract:
An example method for segmenting an object contained in an image includes receiving an image including a plurality of pixels, transforming a plurality of characteristics of a pixel into respective neutrosophic set domains, calculating a neutrosophic similarity score for the pixel based on the respective neutrosophic set domains for the characteristics of the pixel, segmenting an object from background of the image using a region growing algorithm based on the neutrosophic similarity score for the pixel, and receiving a margin adjustment related to the object segmented from the background of the image.
