An Integrated approach for color Image Segmentation using edge and color information
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2013, Vol 14, Issue 6
Abstract
Image segmentation is a fundamental and complex task in many image processing applications. In this paper, we propose a hybrid method for color image segmentation by integrating color edge information and seeded region growing. We use the color edge information to decide the best position to place the seed and to control the growth of the region. By using color edge detection technique, regions without edges are labeled as the initial seed. Regions are grown from this seed point by adding neighboring pixels that are similar based on homogeneity criterion. The obtained edge map and the region growth map are fused together to produce homogeneous regions with closed boundaries. Finally region merging is done to merge small regions
