Hierarchical Layered Mean Shift Methods

Many image processing tasks exist and segmentation is one of them. We are focused on the mean-shift segmentation method. Our goal is to improve its speed and reduce the over-segmentation problem that occurs with small spatial bandwidths. We propose new mean-shift method called Hierarchical Layered Mean Shift. It uses hierarchical preprocessing stage and stacking hierarchical segmentation outputs together to minimise the over-segmentation problem.
