Abstract

In this paper, we propose a segmentation algorithm which combines the ideas from local watershed transforms and the region merging algorithm based hierarchical queue. Only the process of watershed and region merging algorithm can be restricted area. A fast region merging approach is proposed to extract the video object from the regions of watershed segmentation. Results show the effectiveness and convenience of the approach.
