Two algorithms for segmentation of cell images are proposed. They have a unique part that contains computation of morphological gradient to extract object borders and thinning the obtained borders to get a line of one-pixel thickness. For this task, we propose the fast gray-scale thinning algorithm that is based on the idea of the analysis of binary image layers. Then, the obtained one-pixel lines are used to extract cells and compute their characteristics. The algorithms based on morphological and split/merge segmentation are developed and used for this task.
