Method of using MPEG-7 standard in object segmentation

摘要

The invention relates to a method of using MPEG-7 in object segmentation to extract a desired moving or still image object. The method includes extracting the feature of an existing video object Plane (VOP) by MPEG-7 technique and storing it in an MPEG-7 database, segmenting an input image into a plurality of objects by using the watershed process, comparing each of the plurality of objects to the stored object descriptor feature, and extracting the shape and position of the most similar object in the input image.
