PROCEDURE FOR USING NEURAL NETWORKS FOR SEGMENTATION OF RASTER IMAGES

Currently, means of semantic segmentation of images, based on the use of neural networks, are increasingly used in computer systems for various purposes. Despite significant successes in this field, one of the most important unsolved problems is the task of determining the type and parameters of convolutional neural networks, which are the basis of the encoder and decoder. As a result of the research, an appropriate procedure was developed that allows the neural network encoder and decoder to be adapted to the following conditions of the segmentation problem: image size, number of color channels, permissible minimum accuracy of segmentation, permissible maximum computational complexity of segmentation, the need to label segments, the need to select several segments, the need to select deformed, displaced and rotated objects, the maximum computational complexity of learning a neural network model is permissible; admissible training period of the neural network model. The implementation of the procedure of applying neural networks for image segmentation consists in the formation of the basic mathematical support, the construction of the main blocks and the general scheme of the proce
