Abstract

This paper deals with efficient medical image segmentation. The proposed method uses more than one scaling parameters such as sigma and epsilon. The proposed method reduces the number of iteration and tales less computational time than the original method. Comparison between original and proposed method is illustrated with the help of graph. It is possible to apply the proposed method to 2d as well as 3d images.
