Abstract

Medical image segmentation is a relevant and active research field of medical image processing. The proposal of various algorithms not only enriches the means to solve the problem of medical image segmentation but also makes the algorithm classification and summary urgent. At present, a variety of classification methods are mostly based on the characteristics of the algorithm itself. If the classification principle of the algorithm is determined according to the essential elements of the organ plane space, such as point, line, and surface, a new classification method will be formed, and it is more in line with people’s intuitive feelings. Using this new segmentation principle to classify medical image segmentation algorithms is helpful to clarify the relationship between various algorithms.
