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 ...
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.
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.
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]
The Mumford–Shah functional is a functional that is used to establish an optimality criterion for segmenting an image into sub-regions. An image is modeled as a piecewise-smooth function. The functional penalizes the distance between the model and the input image, the lack of smoothness of the model within the sub-regions, and the length of ...
U-Net is a convolutional neural network that was developed for image segmentation. [1] The network is based on a fully convolutional neural network [2] whose architecture was modified and extended to work with fewer training images and to yield more precise segmentation. Segmentation of a 512 × 512 image takes less than a second on a modern ...
Subjective surface Segmentation: This method is based on the idea of evolution of segmentation function which is governed by an advection-diffusion model. [10] To segment an object, a segmentation seed is needed (that is the starting point that determines the approximate position of the object in the image).
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 ...
