Embodiment Construction

[0037] Specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below.

[0038] Image segmentation is also a clustering process, which gathers regions with certain characteristic consistency into one region, that is, clusters the pixels in the image. We can regard the entire image as an undirected graph, which is composed of vertices and edges connecting vertices. The vertices represent the positions of pixels, and the edges represent the strength of the connection between vertices. The value of the edges between pixels can also be expressed As a measure that two vertices have some kind of feature consistency, that is to measure whether two vertices should be clustered into the same region. Let G=(V, E), G represents the undirected graph, V represents the vertex set of the undirected graph, and E represents the edge between the vertices in the undirected graph G. Divide the undirected graph G into two disjoint regions A and B, satisfying AB=V and A⌒B=Φ, and ...

Abstract

The related minimal normalization image segmentation method comprises: 1) reducing dimension to the target image; 2) taking minimal normalization segmentation to obtain the low-dimension segmentation boundary; 3) taking additional sampling, reconstructing an image with same dimension as the target; 4) connecting the discontinuous segmentation boundary to obtain the required segmentation boundary. This invention has acceptable time and space complexity and wide application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an image segmentation method, in particular to an image segmentation method using normalized cut in graph theory. Background technique [0002] In computer vision, multimedia retrieval, multimedia nonlinear editing and object-oriented video coding, automatic and semi-automatic segmentation of video objects at the semantic level is a fundamental problem with wide application. In computer vision, object segmentation at the semantic level can obtain an intermediate description of the scene. It needs to fuse local and global descriptions of images and videos such as chromaticity, texture, and motion field in the image. Successful video object segmentation is further image coding, Fundamentals of scene understanding and pattern recognition. For example, the segmentation of video objects must be obtained in the extensive research on surveillance scene understanding. The surveillance scene understanding system can automatically deter...
