Abstract

En 中文
In this paper a novel Tensor-Based Image Segmentation Algorithm (TBISA) is presented, which is dedicated for segmentation of colour images. A purpose of TBISA is to distinguish specific objects based on their characteristics, i.e. shape, colour, texture, or a mixture of these features. All of those information are available in colour channel data. Nonetheless, performing image analysis on the pixel level using RGB values, does not allow to access information on texture which is hidden in relation between neighbouring pixels. Therefore, to take full advantage of all available information, we propose to incorporate the Structural Tensors as a feature extraction method. It forms enriched feature set which, apart from colour and intensity, conveys also information of texture. This set is next processed by different classification algorithms for image segmentation. Quality of TBISA is evaluated in a series of experiments carried on benchmark images. Obtained results prove that the proposed method allows accurate and fast image segmentation.
