An iterative superpixel algorithm based on color variances and cross seams
Ching-Chi Huang, Liang-Yu Tai, Chang Hong Lin · 2017
In this paper, we proposed a seam carving based refinement method to refine and produce superpixels. The proposed method can refine existing superpixels by repeating the splitting process. There are two major steps. The first is choosing a superpixel candidate by analyzing color variances; the second is splitting a superpixel into 4 by dynamic programming. The experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve higher accuracy compare to original methods in the same number of superpixels.
