This study presents a novel AI-driven image segmentation algorithm capable of identifying intricate details, specifically capillary structures, across diverse image types (eye fundus, citrus leaves, printed circuit boards). The algorithm combines image super-resolution (using an Efficient Sub-Pixel Convolutional Neural Network), U-Net based segmentation, and image binarization for masking. Results show significant performance improvements in image super-resolution (PSNR of 37.92 and SSIM of 0.9219 on Set 5 and Set 14 datasets), outperforming other methods. While highly effective, the algorithm’s computational complexity is dominated by the masking module, suggesting potential avenues for future optimization.
The versatility and accuracy demonstrated highlight its potential for detailed analysis across various applications requiring precise image segmentation.
