gSLIC: a real-time implementation of SLIC superpixel segmentation
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce a parallel implementation of the Simple Linear Iterative Clustering (SLIC) superpixel segmentation. Our implementation uses GPU and the NVIDIA CUDA framework. Using a single graphic card, our implementation achieves speedups of 10x∼20x from the sequential implementation. This allow us to use the superpixel segmentation method in real-time performance. Our implementation is compatible with the standard sequential implementation. Finally, the software is now online and is open source.

Segmentation Improvement of High Resolution Remote Sensing Images based on superpixels using Edge-based SLIC algorithm (E-SLIC)
The segmentation of high resolution remote sensing images is one of the most important analyses that play a significant role in the maximal and exact extraction of information. There are different types of segmentation methods among which using superpixels is one of the most important ones. Several methods have been proposed for extracting superpixels. Among the most successful ones, we can r...

متن کاملA Segmentation Method for Lung Parenchyma Image Sequences Based on Superpixels and a Self-Generating Neural Forest
BACKGROUND Lung parenchyma segmentation is often performed as an important pre-processing step in the computer-aided diagnosis of lung nodules based on CT image sequences. However, existing lung parenchyma image segmentation methods cannot fully segment all lung parenchyma images and have a slow processing speed, particularly for images in the top and bottom of the lung and the images that cont...
متن کاملFast Segmentation and Classification of Very High Resolution Remote Sensing Data Using SLIC Superpixels
Speed and accuracy are important factors when dealing with time-constraint events for disaster, risk, and crisis-management support. Object-based image analysis can be a time consuming task in extracting information from large images because most of the segmentation algorithms use the pixel-grid for the initial object representation. It would be more natural and efficient to work with perceptua...
