COLOR IMAGE SEGMENTATION METHOD

摘要

A color image segmentation method is provided. The color image segmentation method includes the steps of: (a) calculating a predetermined value representing the degree of difference form the color of peripheral pixels by using pixel values of an input image; (b) obtaining a converted image by converting a calculated value into a value of a predetermined scale; and (c) segmenting the converted image. According to the color image segmentation method, a robust and an automatic segmentation is possible, and a segmentation speed is high even when segmenting an image containing much noise.
