Improved Marker Controlled Watershed Algorithm for Novel Applications

Abstract

Counting objects is primary task in biomedical field, food & beverage industry. To overcome this issue we present a marker controlled watershed algorithm and thresholding which provides 99.9% results. Watershed algorithm technique is segregating the similar objects in an image and thresholding to count the objects in an image. However, watershed algorithm does not perform due to noise and irregularities in edges. To overcome this disadvantage, segmentation using markers i.e. internal marker by using opening and closing functions and in turn external marker pixels belongs to the background.
