| Abstract(in English) | Grain size analysis for microscopic images has been used as an evaluation technique for the mechanical strength of steel materials. The measurement of grain size distribution requires a segmentation for crystalline granularity, and is currently done manually by specialists. This paper hence proposes an automatic segmentation technique for crystalline granularity based on the watershed algorithm. To alleviate oversegmentation problem and suppress errorneous region merging due to broken edges, a novel edge interpolatin and enhancement technique based on electric-circuit simulation, which has been proposed by one of the authors, is used together with the watershed algorithm. Experimental results illustrate that the proposed algorithm offers precise segmentation results for those images with relatively clear boundaries of regions. |
