Nonlinear vector-valued diffusions with application to texture segmentation
Xiaogang Dong, Ilya Pollak · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 2005
We present a multiscale region-merging segmentation algorithm based on nonlinear diffusion equations. The algorithm is applicable to vector-valued images such as color images, or feature images obtained by pre-processing a texture image. The algorithm is experimentally shown to provide accurate segmentations for texture images.
