Color Image Segmentation Using Global Information and Local Homogeneity
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a new method of color image segmentation considering both global information and local homogeneity. The method applies the mean shift algorithm in the hue and intensity subspace of HSV. The cyclic property of the hue component is also considered in the proposed method. Experiments on natural color images show promising results.

A hierarchical approach to color image segmentation using homogeneity
In this paper, a novel hierarchical approach to color image segmentation is studied. We extend the general idea of a histogram to the homogeneity domain. In the first phase of the segmentation, uniform regions are identified via multilevel thresholding on a homogeneity histogram. While we process the homogeneity histogram, both local and global information is taken into consideration. This is p...
متن کاملA Novel Method for Content Base Image Retrieval Using Combination of Local and Global Features
Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has been an active research topic in the last decade. In this paper we proposed an image retrieval method using global and local features. Firstly, for local features extraction, SURF algorithm produces a set of interest points for each image and a set of 64-dimensional descriptors for each interest points and then to use Bag of Visual Words model, a cluster...
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 skin segmentation in color images
A new skin segmentation technique for color images is proposed. The proposed technique uses a human skin color model that is based on the Bayesian decision theory and developed using a large training set of skin colors and nonskin colors. The proposed technique is novel and unique in that texture characteristics of the human skin are used to select appropriate skin color thresholds for skin seg...
متن کاملCluster-Based Image Segmentation Using Fuzzy Markov Random Field
Image segmentation is an important task in image processing and computer vision which attract many researchers attention. There are a couple of information sets pixels in an image: statistical and structural information which refer to the feature value of pixel data and local correlation of pixel data, respectively. Markov random field (MRF) is a tool for modeling statistical and structural inf...
