Fast Image Segmentation and Smoothing Using Commodity Graphics Hardware

Ruigang Yang, Greg Welch · Journal of Graphics Tools · 2002

We present a novel use of commodity graphics hardware to perform real-time image segmentation and image morphology operations. Our preliminary results show a performance increase of over 30% using an nVidia GeForce4 when compared to an implementation using Intel MMX optimized code on a 2.2 Ghz Intel P4 CPU.
