Color image segmentation and understanding through connected components
Wanzhen Wang, Chengyi Sun, Hongxing Chao · 2002
A new definition of connected components for color images, called (r,/spl delta/) connected components, is proposed. This definition has developed the connected components theory. The new definition is applied to the segmentation and understanding of color images. Experiment shows that the segmentation through (r,/spl delta/)-connected components can give meaningful, reasonable and effective partition of color images. The (r,/spl delta/)-connected components analysis of color images is shown to be a good tool for the segmentation and understanding of color images.
