In this paper, we propose a hybrid analysis method(HAM) based on gray-intensity information from natural scene images. The HAM is composed of GIA(Gray-intensity Information Analysis) and SMA(Split/Merge Analysis). Our experimental results show that the proposed approach is superior to conventional methods both in simple and complex images.
