Relevance model based image segmentation
Sonhao Zhu, Jiawei Liu, Qingqing Luo, Ronglin Hu · 2014
Image segmentation is a fundamental process in computer vision applications. This paper presents a novel method to deal with the issue of image segmentation. Each image is first segmented coarsely, and represented as a graph model. Then, a semi-supervised algorithm is utilized to estimate the relevance between labeled nodes and unlabeled nodes to construct a relevance matrix. Finally, a normalized cut criterion is utilized to segment images into meaningful units. The experimental results conducted on Berkeley image databases and MSRC image databases demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.
