A New Method of Color Image Segmentation Based on Intensity and Hue Clustering
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new method of color image segmentation is proposed in this paper. It’s based on K-means algorithm in HSI space and has the advantage over those based on the RGB space. Both the hue and the intensity components are fully utilized. In the process of hue clustering, the special cyclic property of the hue component is taken into consideration. The paper gives the definition of the distance and the center in the hue space, based on which the hue-clustering algorithm is implemented. Utilized in medical image processing, the new method has got a good performance.

Motivated by the method for color image segmentation based on intensity and hue clustering proposed in [26] we give some theoretical explanations for this method that directly follows from the natural connection between the maximum likelihood approach and Least Squares or Least Absolute Deviations clustering optimality criteria. The method is tested and illustrated on a few typical situations, ...
متن کاملImage Segmentation using Improved Imperialist Competitive Algorithm and a Simple Post-processing
Image segmentation is a fundamental step in many of image processing applications. In most cases the image’s pixels are clustered only based on the pixels’ intensity or color information and neither spatial nor neighborhood information of pixels is used in the clustering process. Considering the importance of including spatial information of pixels which improves the quality of image segmentati...

متن کاملAdaptive Color Image Segmentation Using Fuzzy Min-Max Clustering
This paper proposes a novel system for color image segmentation called “Adaptive color image segmentation using fuzzy min-max clustering (ACISFMC)”. The present work is an application of Simpson’s fuzzy min-max neural network (FMMN) clustering algorithm. ACISFMC uses a multilayer perceptron (MLP) like network which perform color image segmentation using multilevel thresholding. Threshold values...
