KSS: Using Region and Edge Maps to Detect Image Boundaries
Karin Satie Komati, Evandro Ottoni Teatini Salles, Mário Sarcinelli-Filho · Computing in Science & Engineering · 2010
This fully automated process uses edge map information to eliminate false boundaries in an image's region map, and region map information to remove noise in its edge map. It then integrates the two maps into a single, final result. Experiments on a large dataset of natural color images show that this approach matches human perception better than individual methods in terms of both quantity and quality.
