specific Embodiment approach 1

[0021] Specific implementation mode one: combine figure 1 Describe this embodiment, a kind of natural image superpixel segmentation method based on graph (Graph) model of this embodiment is specifically called:

[0022] Step 1: Map the input natural image into a weighted graph;

[0023] Step 2: Input the number of K superpixels expected to be generated, and perform uniform grid sampling on the weighted map in step 1 according to the number of K superpixels to obtain the initial positions of K superpixels, and K is a positive integer;

[0024] Step 3: clustering is performed on the basis of the initial positions of the K superpixels obtained in step 2 to generate superpixels;

[0025] Step 4: Optimize the boundaries of the superpixels generated in step 3 to obtain the result of superpixel segmentation.

specific Embodiment approach 2

[0026] Embodiment 2: The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in the step 1, the input natural image is mapped to a weighted graph; the specific process is:

[0027] Gaussian filtering is performed on the original natural image I, and each pixel i in the original natural image I after Gaussian filtering is mapped to a vertex v of the graph G i , obtain the vertex set V; i=1,2,...N, N is the total number of pixels of the original image I, and the value is a positive integer;

[0028] The graph G is a graph Graph;

[0029] For each vertex v in graph G i are in its 8 neighborhoods (such as Figure 5 ) vertex v j Use edge e(i, j) to connect to get edge set E of graph G, j=1, 2, ... N; assign weight to each edge e(i, j) in E, after weighting, e(i ,j) is recorded as w(i,j), and w(i,j) is v i with v j Euclidean distance d on (r,g,b) space spectral Euclidean distance d from (x,y) space spatial The weighted sum of:

[0030] w(i,j)=λ·d spectral +(1-λ)·d ...

specific Embodiment approach 3

[0034] Specific embodiment three: the difference between this embodiment and specific embodiment one or two is: in the step two, input the number of K superpixels expected to be generated, and perform a uniform network on the weighted map in step one according to the number of K superpixels grid sampling,

[0035] The initial positions of K superpixels are obtained, and the value of K is a positive integer; the specific process is:

[0036] Input the number of K superpixels expected to be generated (manually set based on experience), and sample the weighted map in step 1 with a uniform grid separated by s pixels to obtain the starting positions of K superpixels; in order to generate approximately uniform size superpixels, grid spacing K superpixels are denoted as (C 0 ,C 1 ,C 2 ,...,C K-1 );

[0037] Among them, C l is the set of all pixels in the lth superpixel, 0≤l≤k-1.

[0038] Other steps and parameters are the same as those in Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2.

Abstract

The invention relates to a natural image super pixel segmentation method based on a graph model, so as to solve the defect that the existing method can not have high super pixel segmentation precision while super pixels with uniform sizes are generated. The method comprises steps: 1, an inputted natural image is mapped to a weighted graph; 2, K super pixels which are expected to be generated are inputted, and uniform mesh sampling is carried out on the weighted graph in the first step according to the K super pixels to obtain initial positions of the K super pixels, wherein K is a positive integer; 3, clustering is carried out on the basis of the obtained initial positions of the K super pixels in the second step, and super pixels are generated; and 4, the boundary of the super pixels generated in the third step is optimized to obtain a result for the super pixel segmentation. The method of the invention is used in a digital image processing field.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a natural image superpixel segmentation method based on a graph model. Background technique [0002] In recent years, remote sensing imaging technology has continued to develop, and has important applications in land cover monitoring, urban planning and other fields, with great potential for future development. With the improvement of the spatial resolution of remote sensing imaging, the processing of remote sensing images expressed pixel by pixel consumes too much memory resources and computing time, while remote sensing images stored in the form of superpixels can greatly reduce the complexity of images and improve The performance of subsequent image processing algorithms is an important preprocessing step of image processing technology. The quality of superpixel segmentation directly determines the performance of subsequent image processing algorithms. Generally speaking, we require the generated superpixels to better adhere...
