Local-Entropy Based Approach for X-Ray Image Segmentation and Fracture Detection

The paper proposes a segmentation and classification technique for fracture detection in X-ray images. This novel rotation-invariant method introduces the concept of local entropy for de-noising and removing tissue from the analysed X-ray images, followed by an improved procedure for image segmentat...
