MODIFIED WATERSHED ALGORITHM BASED ON DISTANCE- METRIC CRITERION FOR NUCLEI CLUSTERED SEPARATION IN PAP SMEAR IMAGES

ABSTRACT: An improved watershed algorithm based on distance-metric criteria to separate overlapping cells  proposed  in  this  study.  In  this  study,  we  present  a  novel  watershed-based  method  for separation of overlapping cervical cell in Pap smear images. The results will be compared with other  method  namely  distance  transform,  and  color  morphology  gradient.  The  result  of proposed method shows not only produces accurate separating cells cluster, but also keeps the shape of cells in good form.
