Region segmen-tation is used to determine important regions and background information in the input image. The non-subsampled contourlet transform (NSCT) provides a flexible multiresolution,local and directional image expansion,and also a sparse representation for two-dimensional (2-D) piecewise smooth signal building images,and then different fusion rules are applied to fuse the NSCT coefficients fo...展开更多
