To extract circle objects on the image by rectangle

Circle_extractor

The repository includes the codes to extract circle objects on the image by a rectangle. It is used in the following paper:

Deeply Supervised Skin Lesions Diagnosis with Stage and Branch Attention
Wei Dai, Rui Liu, Tianyi Wu, Min Wang, Jianqin Yin, Jun Liu
Appeared in IEEE JBHI, 2023. [Arxiv][Paper]

The image is processed by transforming into grey scale, binarization, and cropping.

Data preparation

• Put your data into dataset folder. Or, Change the DatasetPath to the location of your data.
• Under WriteMode 1, you can finish the circle extraction progress.

I used an example image for an illustration on my paper. You can try it under WriteMode 0 using the data from dataset/example/bcc/ISIC_0053830.jpg.
