The invention discloses an image segmentation level selection method based on scale perception, and aims to improve the segmentation quality of an overall image. The method comprises the following main steps: firstly, obtaining a segmentation result represented by a tree form by using a multi-level image segmentation algorithm; secondly, calculating feature vectors of all segmented regions in eachsegmentation layer, and performing quantitative description on region segmentation quality according to a visual format tower principle; thirdly, constructing a graph model of the multi-level segmented image by taking the hierarchical region with the finest segmentation granularity as a node, and finally, mapping a label to a region corresponding to the original hierarchy, and combining to obtaina final image segmentation result. According to the method, based on the scale selection principle of segmentation area quality, the problem of hierarchical selection of multi-level image segmentation is solved, and the limitation of traditional single hierarchical selection and the uncertainty of threshold parameters on segmentation hierarchical selection are overcome. As a post-processing means, the output quality of the multi-level image segmentation algorithm in a visual processing task can be improved.
