Abstract
In this paper we present an evaluation of four different 3D segmentation algorithms with respect to their performance on three different CT Data Sets. The segmentation algorithms evaluated in this study are seeded region growing, volumetric segmentation using WEIBULL E SD fields, automatic multilevel thresholding by using OTSU method and unseeded region growing. The main results gained from our experimentation and implementation details are presented.
