Robust Image Segmentation Using LBP Embedded Region Merging
Abstract: The region merging
algorithm by the maximal similarity with color histogram has been applied
successfully in color image segmentation. However, only using color histogram
information is not sufficient and effective for superior segmentation. We
propose a novel color image segmentation method based on region merging by
using joint color-texture histogram in this paper. The proposed method incorporates
both color histogram and texture histogram information to measure the
similarity of different regions and thus to guide the region merging process.
Experiments show that our method is more accurate and robust than traditional
image segmentation methods based on region merging.
