| Sumario: | Most of the existing image segmentation methods have a strong anti-noise ability but are susceptible to the interference in the background, so they are not suitable for 3-D synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image target extraction. Region of interest (ROI) extraction can improve the anti-interference ability of the image segmentation methods. However, the existing ROI extraction method uses the same threshold to process all the images in the data set. This threshold is not optimal for each image. Designed for 3-D SAR image target extraction, we propose an ROI extraction algorithm with adaptive threshold (REAT) to enhance the anti-interference ability of the existing image segmentation methods. The required thresholds in the proposed algorithm are adaptively obtained by the mapping of the image features. Moreover, the proposed algorithm can easily be applied to existing image segmentation methods. The experiments demonstrate that the proposed algorithm significantly enhances the anti-interference ability and computational efficiency of the image segmentation methods. Compared with the existing ROI extraction algorithm, the proposed algorithm improves the dice similarity coefficient by 6.4%. |
