The energy functional of the proposed model consists of three terms: global term, local term and regularization term. By incorporating the local image information into the proposed model, the images with intensity inhomogeneity can be efficiently segmented. Finally, experiments on nighttime plate images have demonstrated the efficiency and robustness of our model. Moreover, comparisons with recent popular local binary fitting (LBF) model also show that our LCV model can segment images with few iteration times. }, issn = {1746-7659}, doi = {https://doi.org/}, url = {http://global-sci.org/intro/article_detail/jics/22685.html} }
