MATLAB Image Segmentation: Techniques and Implementation
Image segmentation is the process of partitioning digital images into segments (sets of pixels, also known as superpixels). This technique simplifies and/or transforms image representation to make it more meaningful and easier to analyze [1][2]. Image segmentation is commonly used to locate objects and boundaries (lines, curves, etc.) by assigning labels to each pixel such that pixels with same labels share specific characteristics. Implementation approaches include thresholding, region-growing, and clustering algorithms.
