ENHANCED SPATIAL-RANGE MEAN SHIFT COLOR IMAGE SEGMENTATION BY USING CONVERGENCE FREQUENCY AND POSITION |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Mean shift is robust for image segmentation through local mode seeking. However, like most segmentation schemes it suffers from over-segmentation due to the lack of semantic information. This paper proposes an enhanced spatial-range mean shift segmentation approach, where over-segmented regions are reduced by exploiting the positions and frequencies at which mean shift filters converge. Based on our observation that edges are related to spatial positions with low mean shift convergence frequencies, merging of over-segmented regions can be guided away from the perceptually important image edges. Simulations have been performed and results have shown that the proposed scheme is able to reduce the over-segmentation while maintaining sharp region boundaries for semantically important objects. |
