Abstract

The invention discloses a depth map-based automatic image segmentation method, and discloses an improved GrabCut image segmentation algorithm for solving the problem that images cannot be effectivelysegmented by GrabCut when images have close-background image regions, shadow regions or low-contrast regions. According to the algorithm, depth information is fused on the basis of realizing GrabCut automatic segmentation via significance, so that the segmentation correctness of the algorithm is improved. The method comprises the following steps of: firstly, initializing the GrabCut algorithm by guiding significant information through the depth information; secondly, fusing the depth information into an energy formula of the algorithm; and finally, constructing a network flow map by using theimproved energy formula and a superpixel, and carrying out maximum flow / minimum flow segmentation. Compared with traditional image segmentation method, the method has the effect of effectively combining depth information with a GrabCut automatic segmentation framework so as to improve the correctness of the segmentation algorithm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of digital image processing, and in particular relates to an automatic image segmentation method based on a depth map. Background technique [0002] The purpose of image segmentation is the process of dividing an image into several parts through automatic or user interaction. It is one of the basic problems in the fields of image processing, human-computer interaction, etc. It is widely used in many fields to simplify subsequent operations, such as object Dataset construction, image editing and image retrieval, etc. Among many image segmentation methods, graph theory-based segmentation has attracted much attention due to its advantages of considering global information, fusing color and region information well, and requiring only a small amount of user interaction. Traditional graph-cut refers to manually annotating some pixels as foreground objects and backgrounds with user interaction, and using Graph-cut...
