Initial Segmentation

Segmentation

• Partition f(x,y) into sub-images: R1, R2, ….,Rn such thatthe following constraints are satisfied:–

–

– Each sub-mage satisfies a predicate or set of predicates• All pixels in any sub-image musts have the same gray levels.

• All pixels in any sub-image must not differ more than somethreshold

• All pixels in any sub-image may not differ more than somethreshold from the mean of the gray of the region

• The standard deviation of gray levels in any sub-image must besmall.

HistogramHistogram graphs the number of pixels in an image with a Particular gray level as a function of the image of gray levels.

For (I=0, I<m, I++) For (J=0, J<m, J++) histogram[f(I,J)]++;

Steps in Segmentation UsingHistogram

1. Compute the histogram of a given image.2. Smooth the histogram by averaging peaks and

valleys in the histogram.3. Detect good peaks by applying thresholds at the

valleys.4. Segment the image into several binary images

using thresholds at the valleys.5. Apply connected component algorithm to each

binary image find connected regions.
