چکیده

This paper proposes a framework for colour texture segmentation. The framework uses the colour and the texture distributions for discriminating the colour textured regions. The proposed colour texture segmentation method was tested in three different applications. The applications includes Irish Script on Screen (ISOS) images, skin cancer images and Sediment Profile Imagery (SPI). Image textures are used in combination with colour features for the segmentation of the colour textured regions in the document, to identify the diseased area in the skin cancer images and to segment underwater images. The inclusion of colour and texture as distributions of regions provide a good discrimination of the colour and the texture. The experimental results proved that the framework is effective and efficient.

Integration of Colour and Texture Distributions for Skin Cancer Image Segmentation

This study presents an efficient way to segment the skin cancer images. A novel method is proposed that combines colour and texture for the segmentation of skin lesions from unaffected skin region in an image. The distributions of colour and texture features provide a platform for the discrimination of skin lesions. The segmentation results are evaluated quantitatively by means of a comparative...

Spatial and Feature Space Clustering: Applications in Image Analysis

We propose a novel approach to image segmentation, called feature and spatial domain clustering. The method is devised to group pixel data by taking into account simultaneously both their feature space similarity and spatial coherence. The FSD algorithm is practically application independent. It has been successfully tested on a wide range of image segmentation problems, including grey and colo...

Image segmentation based on the integration of colour-texture descriptors - A review

The adaptive integration of the colour and texture attributes in the development of complex image descriptors is one of the most investigated topics of research in computer vision. The substantial interest shown by the research community in colour–texture-based segmentation is mainly motivated by two factors. The first is related to the observation that the imaged objects are often described at...

Map Segmentation by Colour Cube

Segmentation of a colour image composed of different kinds of texture regions can be a hard problem, namely to compute for an exact texture fields and a decision of the optimum number of segmentation areas in an image when it contains similar and/or unstationary texture fields. In this work, a method is described for evolving adaptive procedures for these problems. In many real world applicatio...
