Abstract :
Gold immunochromatographic strip (GICS) quantitative detective can provide more information than the qualitative or semiquantitative testing. In this paper, a fast color image segmentation method is presented to develop the quantitative detective of GICS. The image of GICS was acquired by Charge-coupled Device (CCD) image sensor, and segmented by fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm based on color histogram in HSV color space. Maximin-distance algorithm was adopted to get the initial positions of centroids and cluster number to overcome the shortcoming that the FCM algorithm may produce local optimal results. For the segmented target image, a special characteristic parameter was constructed and calculated in HSV color space to achieve the quantitative interpretation of the GICS.
