Effective Image Segmentation using Graph Base Method  
  Authors : Yeshwant Deodhe; Shashant Jaykar; Rohit Himte

 

Graph based image segmentation techniques are considered to be one of the most efficient segmentation techniques. Which are mainly used as time & space efficient methods for real time applications Image segmentation is the first step of image Mining. Due to the limited resources of the Sensor devices, we need time and space efficient methods of image segmentation In this paper, we propose an improving to the graph Base image segmentation method. Already describe in the literature and considered as the most effective method with satisfactory segmentation result. This is the preprocessing step of our online image Mining Approach. We contribute to the method by Re-defining the Internal difference used to define the property of the Components and threshold function the conducted Experiment demonstrates the efficiency and effectiveness of the adjusted method.

Graph Base Image Segmentation Method, New Threshold Function, Sensor Devices

In this paper, we compared the existing segmentation approaches in terms of image features, similarity measurement and segmentation algorithm and discussed the possible techniques to improve the efficiency of image segmentation for sensor monitoring applications. We analyzed the graph-based image segmentation method described in [4], which is reported in the literature as the fastest one with satisfactory segmentation result we proposed major improvement to this method.. We redefined the internal difference to give a more accurate and stable description of components with no increase of time complexity .We re-define the threshold function such that it Can adaptively guide the segmentation process independent of the edge weight scale. Finally, the reported experimental results on a well Learn known database of images demonstrate the effective-ness and efficiency of the proposed approach.
