Computer Vision-based Color Image Segmentation with Improved Kernel Clustering
نویسندگان
چکیده
Color image segmentation has been widely applied to diverse fields in the past decades for containing more information than gray ones, whose essence is a process of clustering according to the color of pixels. However, traditional clustering methods do not scale well with the number of data, which limits the ability of handling massive data effectively. We developed an improved kernel clustering algorithm for computing the different clusters of given color images in kernel-induced space for image segmentation. Compared to other popular algorithms, it has the competitive performances both on training time and accuracy. The experiments performed on both synthetic and real-world data sets demonstrate the validity of the proposed algorithm.

Color Image Segmentation via Improved K-Means Algorithm
Data clustering techniques are often used to segment the real world images. Unsupervised image segmentation algorithms that are based on the clustering suffer from random initialization. There is a need for efficient and effective image segmentation algorithm, which can be used in the computer vision, object recognition, image recognition, or compression. To address these problems, the authors ...

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...

In this paper, we try to apply kernel methods to solve the problem of color image segmentation, which is attracting more and more attention recently as color images provide more information than gray level images do. One natural way for color image segmentation is to do pixels clustering in color space. GMM has been applied for this task. However, practice has shown that GMM doesn’t perform thi...
