摘要：

We introduce an iterative thresholding algorithm for the segmentation of cells from noisy cell images. The thresholding image, which is initially a constant, changes iteratively with both the previous segmentation and image local activity. Experimental results for both synthesized and real cell images are provided to demonstrate the performance of the algorithm.
