A Criterion for Circumscribed Contours Determination for Image Segmentation

چکیده
The aim of the work presented in this paper is to explore the concept of Circumscribed Contour (CC) and the development of a methodology for its obtention. These contours correspond to significant borders between the perceptive regions of the scene. The extraction of the CC is based on the obtention of a contours image generated from the integration of the contours obtained from the Hue, Intensity and Saturation components of the scene, and their further processing.

A Concurrent Region Growing Algorithm Guided by Circumscribed Contours
Image segmentation of natural scenes constitutes a major problem in Machine Vision. This paper presents a new proposal for the image segmentation problem which has been based on the integration of edge and region information. This approach begins by detecting the main contours of the scene which are later used to guide a concurrent set of growing processes. A previous analysis of the seed pixel...

One of the major problems in machine vision is the segmentation of images of natural scenes. This paper presents a new proposal for the image segmentation problem which has been based on the integration of edge and region information. The main contours of the scene are detected and used to guide the posterior region growing process. The algorithm places a number of seeds at both sides of a cont...
