Skin Lesion Segmentation Using Improved Topological Image Processing

This paper presents an enhanced implementation of a topological image processing algorithm, originally introduced in a Nature publication, utilizing the Gudhi library. Additionally, we conduct a quantitative evaluation using two distinct metrics to assess its performance as an unsupervised segmentation algorithm. Our experiments demonstrate the algorithm's effectiveness, and our improved implementation further enhances its results.

Abstract

This paper presents an enhanced implementation of a topological image processing algorithm, originally introduced in a Nature publication, utilizing the Gudhi library. Additionally, we conduct a quantitative evaluation using two distinct metrics to assess its performance as an unsupervised segmentation algorithm. Our experiments demonstrate the algorithm's effectiveness, and our improved implementation further enhances its results.
