The Comparative Study

This paper presents a comparative study using different color spaces to evaluate the performance of color image segmentation using the automatic GrabCut technique. GrabCut is considered as one of the semiautomatic image segmentation techniques, since it requires user interaction for the initialization of the segmentation process. The automation of the GrabCut technique is proposed as a modification of the original semiautomatic one in order to eliminate the user interaction. The automatic GrabCut utilizes the unsupervised Orchard and Bouman clustering technique for the initialization phase. Comparisons with the original GrabCut show the efficiency of the proposed automatic technique in terms of segmentation, quality, and accuracy. As no explicit color space is recommended for every segmentation problem, automatic GrabCut is applied withRGB,HSV,CMY,XYZ, andYUVcolor spaces. The comparative study and experimental results using different color images show thatRGBcolor space is the best color space representation for the set of the images used.

Combined with the composition characteristics of forest fire image background when the forest fire occurred during different time periods of night and day, different image segmentation methods were applied to the forest fire color images of different time periods respectively, which could improve the efficiency of image processing. Meanwhile, application of H and S components from HSV color space, the strategy on color image segmentation which processed the segmentation processing to forest fire color images with complicated background was proposed combined with Otsu algorithm. The results of simulation experiment showed that the above-mentioned segmentation methods were obtained satisfactory segmentation effects when the segmentation on forest fire color images during different time periods of night and day were processed respectively. And also application of Otsu algorithm based on HSV color model, the forest fire image segmentation occurred in the daytime was processed, which overcame the interference factors of light and smoke, as well as the shortage of noise sensibility due to Otsu algorithm.

Color image segmentation is probably the most important task in image analysis and understanding. A novel Human Perception Based Color Image Segmentation System is presented in this paper. This system uses a neural network architecture. The neurons here uses a multisigmoid activation function. The multisigmoid activation function is the key for segmentation. The number of steps ie. thresholds in the multisigmoid function are dependent on the number of clusters in the image. The threshold values for detecting the clusters and their labels are found automatically from the first order derivative of histograms of saturation and intensity in the HSI color space. Here the main use of neural network is to detect the number of objects automatically from an image. It labels the objects with their mean colors. The algorithm is found to be reliable and works satisfactorily on different kinds of color images.

Projective Clustering

An intuitive way of color image segmentation is through clustering in which each pixel in an image is treated as a data point in the feature space. A feature space is effective if it can provide high distinguishability among objects in images. Typically, in the preprocessing phase, various modalities or feature spaces are considered, such as color, texture, intensity, and spatial information. Feature selection or reduction can also be understood as transforming the original feature space into a more distinguishable space (or subspaces) for distinguishing different content in an image. Most clustering-based image segmentation algorithms work in the full feature space while considering the tradeoff between efficiency and effectiveness. The authors’ observation indicates that often time objects in images can be simply detected by applying clustering algorithms in subspaces. In this paper, they propose an image segmentation framework, named Hill-Climbing based Projective Clustering (HCPC), which utilizes EPCH (an efficient projective clustering technique by histogram construction) as the core framework and Hill-Climbing K-means (HC) for dense region detection, and thereby being able to distinguish image contents within subspaces of a given feature space. Moreover, a new feature space, named HSVrVgVb, is also explored which is derived from Hue, Saturation, and Value (HSV) color space. The scalability of the proposed algorithm is linear to the dimensionality of the feature space, and our segmentation results outperform that of HC and other projective clustering-based algorithms.

The primary goal of this research work is to extract only the essential foreground fragments of a color image through segmentation. This technique serves as the foundation for implementing object detection algorithms. The color image can be segmented better in HSV color space model than other color models. An interactive GUI tool is developed in Python and implemented to extract only the foreground from an image by adjusting the values for H (Hue), S (Saturation) and V (Value). The input is an RGB image and the output will be a segmented color image.
