Frequency and Spatial domain based Saliency for Pigmented Skin Lesion Segmentation
Skin lesion segmentation can be rather a challenging task owing to the presence of artifacts, low contrast between lesion and boundary, color variegation, fuzzy skin lesion borders and heterogeneous background in dermoscopy images. In this paper, we propose a simple yet effective saliency-based approach derived in the frequency and spatial domain to detect pigmented skin lesion. Two color models are utilized for the construction of these maps. We suggest a different metric for each color model to design map in the spatial domain via color features. The map in the frequency domain is generated from aggregated images. We adopt a separate fusion scheme to combine salient features in their respective domains. Finally, two-phase saliency integration scheme is devised to combine these maps using pixelwise multiplication. Performance of the proposed method is assessed on PH2 and ISIC 2016 datasets. The outcome of the experiments suggests that the proposed scheme generate better segmentation result as compared to state-of-the-art methods.
