چکیده

This paper presents a morphological classifier with application to color image segmentation. The basic idea of a morphological classifier is to consider a color histogram as a 3-D gray-level image, so that morphological operators can be applied to it. The final objective is to extract clusters in color space, that is, identify regions in the 3-D image. In this paper, we particularly focus on a powerful class of morphology-based filters called levellings to transform the 3D histogram-image to identify clusters. We also show that our method gives better results than other state-of-the-art methods.

Modified CLPSO-based fuzzy classification System: Color Image Segmentation

Fuzzy segmentation is an effective way of segmenting out objects in images containing both random noise and varying illumination. In this paper, a modified method based on the Comprehensive Learning Particle Swarm Optimization (CLPSO) is proposed for pixel classification in HSI color space by selecting a fuzzy classification system with minimum number of fuzzy rules and minimum number of incorr...

A Spatial Constrained K-Means Approach to Image Segmentation

General purposed color image segmentation is a challenging and important issue in image processing related applications. However, few systems successfully handle this issue within a broad diversity of images. In this paper, we are seeking for a practical and generic solution to image segmentation. As a fast segmentation process, Kmeans based clustering is employed in feature space first. Then, ...
