Simulation of Optical Skin Lesion Images.

摘要

Black-white and colour skin/lesion images are synthesised with known characteristics such as boundary, skin pattern and colour. The skin and lesion textures are modelled by the auto-regressive (AR) process. Black-white skin lesion images are obtained by combining black-white skin and lesion textures under control of known lesion shape and colour skin lesion images are generated by mixing the coloured skin and lesion textures, Artefact images of skin hair and specular reflection are then added. The synthesised images provide the image set for evaluating image processing algorithms.
