Improved GrabCut Technique for Segmentation of Color Image
B Basavaprasad, Ravindra S. Hegadi · Advances in Information Technology · 2014
An improved method of the GrabCut Technique has been implemented in this paper which works on image segmentation quite interactively and user friendly and which reduces the user effort. This paper emphasizes on modification of GrabCut image segmentation which is an iterative algorithm that combines statistics and Graph Cut in order to accomplish detailed image segmentation with proper input. The proposed algorithm requires an initial selection of object to be segmented. The algorithm will deflate to capture the object of interest, which has different image feature as compared to its background. This algorithm does not need any more user intervention during its segmentation process. The proposed algorithm could achieve an effective segmentation of objects from background for different classes of images. General Terms Image processing, graph based segmentation.
