Experiencing 3D regions through portal using Augmented Reality
Abstract: AbstractThis paper presents how augmented reality can be used to augment different places (hotels, museums, zoos, etc.) in the user’s own environment. Augmented Reality (AR) is a new technology that involves the 3D rendering of computer graphics in the real world. Using Augmented Reality we can get the actual idea about different places instead of a false impression. Augmented reality (AR) frameworks present a blend of virtual and genuine items. …

Image Segmentation based on Region Merging using Breadth-First Search
Abstract: This paper proposed a new method for image segmentation based on region merging using breadth-first search (BFS). The image can be partitioned into multiple segments so that meaningful information is extracted out and then image is analyzed easily. In the proposed method, first the oversegmented image is obtained by applying a standard watershed transformation on original image. Then BFS is executed on the oversegmented image to obtain a segmented image. …

Improved Global Region based Chan-Vese Model
Abstract: Chan-Vese model is one of the fundamental active contour models for image segmentation. In this paper, the authors propose an improved global region based Chan-Vese model which provides solution to some limitations of basic Chan-Vese model. The proposed model avoids re-initialization requirement to increase speed of algorithm by reaction-diffusion method. The stopping criterion to stop segmentation process is also added in the model. To make model automatic, initialization free feature …
