Segmentation of tuberculosis bacilli in Ziehl-Neelsen-stained tissue images based on K-mean clustering procedure

In this paper, an automatic k-mean clustering based on C-Y colour model was proposed. First, initial filter is used to remove the tissues images which remain blue after counterstaining process. Secondly, k-mean clustering using saturation component of C-Y colour model is used to segment the TB bacil...
