GrabCut is an image segmentation method based on graph cuts. Starting with a user-specified bounding box around the object to be segmented, the algorithm estimates the color distribution of the target object and that of the background using a Gaussian mixture model. This is used to construct a Markov random field over the pixel labels, with an ...
The goal of segmentation is to simplify and/or change the representation of an image into something that is more meaningful and easier to analyze. [1][2] Image segmentation is typically used to locate objects and boundaries (lines, curves, etc.) in images. More precisely, image segmentation is the process of assigning a label to every pixel in ...
Otsu's method. In computer vision and image processing, Otsu's method, named after Nobuyuki Otsu (大津展之, Ōtsu Nobuyuki), is used to perform automatic image thresholding. [1] In the simplest form, the algorithm returns a single intensity threshold that separate pixels into two classes, foreground and background.
A view of the fort of Marburg (Germany) and the saliency Map of the image using color, intensity and orientation. In computer vision, a saliency map is an image that highlights either the region on which people's eyes focus first or the most relevant regions for machine learning models. [1] The goal of a saliency map is to reflect the degree of ...
OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library) is a library of programming functions mainly for real-time computer vision. [2] Originally developed by Intel, it was later supported by Willow Garage, then Itseez (which was later acquired by Intel [3]). The library is cross-platform and licensed as free and open-source software under Apache License 2.
Image moment. In image processing, computer vision and related fields, an image moment is a certain particular weighted average (moment) of the image pixels' intensities, or a function of such moments, usually chosen to have some attractive property or interpretation. Image moments are useful to describe objects after segmentation.
Thresholding (image processing) Original image. The binary image resulting from a thresholding of the original image. In digital image processing, thresholding is the simplest method of segmenting images. From a grayscale image, thresholding can be used to create binary images. [1]
As applied in the field of computer vision, graph cut optimization can be employed to efficiently solve a wide variety of low-level computer vision problems (early vision [1]), such as image smoothing, the stereo correspondence problem, image segmentation, object co-segmentation, and many other computer vision problems that can be formulated in terms of energy minimization.
