We propose a novel multiphase segmentation model built upon the celebrated phase transition model of Modica and Mortola in material sciences and a properly synchronized fitting term that complements it. The proposed sine-sinc model outputs a single multiphase distribution from which each individual segment or phase can be easily extracted. Theoretical analysis is developed for the Gamma-convergence behavior of the proposed model and the existence of its minimizers. Since the model is not quadratic nor convex, for computation we adopted the convex-concave procedure ( CCCP) that has been developed in the literatures of both computational nonlinear PDEs and neural computation. Numerical details and experiments on both synthetic and natural images are presented. |
