Yin Long Wang, Qian Jin Li, Zhi Xiang Li · Applied Mechanics and Materials · 2015
An improved image segmentation algorithm based on watershed transform is presented In this paper. Firstly the normalized cut method and watershed transform are explained and analyzed. Secondly the idea of the improved algorithm and the main formula are explained. We consider the area and perimeter when we merge adjacent regions. We define a new weight value and discuss the value of the parameter α and β. Finally the experiment result is presented. The new algorithm reduces the nodes and the computational demand of the common normalized cut technique.
