IMAGE SEGMENTATION BASED ON MARKOV RANDOM FIELD AND WATERSHED TECHNIQUES

IntroductionThere are many methods to perform imagesegmentation and edge detection tasks that incor-porate region- growing and edge detection tech-niques,for example,it is applying edge detectiontechniques to obtain Difference In Strength( DIS)map then employ region growing techniques towork on the map as in Refs.[1 ,2 ]. In the others,combining both special and intensity information inimage segmentation approach based on multi- reso-lution edge detection,region selection and intensi-ty thre…     

IMAGE ANALYSIS BASED ON EDGE DETECTION TECHNIQUES

IntroductionEdges are pixels where brightness changesabruptly and often used in image analysis for find-ing region boundaries.It locates sharp changes inthe intensity function.Edges detection is basic im-age features.They carry useful information aboutobject boundaries.Edges can be used for object i-dentification,image analysis and image filteringapplications as well.We shall consider as an edgethe border between two homogeneous image re-gions having different illumination.This definitionimp…
