Human Visual System(HVS)의 특성과 image의 textural regions의 roughness을 이용하여 image segmentation을 행하여 high compression에서도 고화질을 나타내는 새로운 image coder를 이 논문에서 논한다. 제안된 image coder는 constant segments를 가진 segmentation-based image coding technique의 문제들을 다음과 같은 방법론을 제안함으로써 해결하였다. Image를 HVS으로 보았을 때 degree of roughness에 관하여 textually homogeneous regions으로 segmentation하였다. Fractal dimension을 roughness of textural regions을 측정하기 위하여 사용하였다. Segmentation은 fractal dimension을 thresholding하여 textural regions이 three texture classes로 분류하였다(perceived constant intensity, smooth texture, and rough texture). High compression을 가지는 고질화의 image coder는 각각의 segment boundary와 각각의 texture class에 효율적인 coding technique를 적용 함으로 얻었다.

Pre-segmented pixels can reduce the difficulty of segmentation and promote the segmentation performance. This paper proposes a novel segmentation method based on merging texture superpixels by computing inner similarity. Firstly, we design a set of Gabor filters to compute the amplitude responses of original image and compute the texture map by a salience model. Secondly, we employ the simple clustering to extract superpixles by affinity of color, coordinates and texture map. Then, we design a normalized histograms descriptor for superpixels integrated color and texture information of inner pixels. To obtain the final segmentation result, all adjacent superpixels are merged by the homogeneity comparison of normalized color-texture features until the stop criteria is satisfied. The experiments are conducted on natural scene images and synthesis texture images demonstrate that the proposed segmentation algorithm can achieve ideal segmentation on complex texture regions.

이본 논문에서는 Bayesian 영상 분할법과 SOM(Self Organization feature Map)을 이용한 텍스쳐(Texture) 분할 방법을 제안한다. SOM의 입력으로 다중 스케일에서의 웨이블릿 계수를 사용하고, 훈련된 SOM으로부터 관측 데이터에 대한 우도(尤度, likelihood)와 사후확률을 구하는 방법을 제시한다. 훈련된 SOM들로부터 구한 사후확률과 MAP(Maximum A Posterior) 분류법을 이용하여 텍스쳐 분할을 얻는다. 그리고 문맥 정보를 이용하여 텍스쳐 분할 결과를 개선하였다. 제안 방법은 HMT(Hidden Markov Tree)을 이용한 텍스쳐 분할보다 더 우수한 결과를 보여준다. 또한 SOM과 HMTseg라고 불리는 다중스케일 Bayesian 영상 분할 기법을 이용한 텍스쳐 분할 결과는 HMT와 HMTseg을 이용한 결과보다 더 우수한 성능을 보여준다.

Image segmentation is a very crucial step in effective digital image processing. In the past decade, several research contributions were given related to this field. However, a general segmentation algorithm suitable for various applications is still challenging. Among several image segmentation approaches, graph-based approach has gained popularity due to its basic ability which reflects global image properties. This paper proposes a methodology to partition the image with its pixel, region and texture along with its intensity. To make segmentation faster in large images, it is processed in parallel among several CPUs. A way to achieve this is to split images into tiles that are independently processed. However, regions overlapping the tile border are split or lost when the minimum size requirements of the segmentation algorithm are not met. Here the contributions are made to segment the image on the basis of its pixel using min-cut/max-flow algorithm along with edge-based segmentation of the image. To segment on the basis of the region using a homogenous optimum cut algorithm with boundary segmentation. On the basis of texture, the object type using spectral partitioning technique is identified which also minimizes the graph cut value.

An image coding technique based on a segmentation, which utilizes a simplified description of regions composing an image, is investigated in this paper. The proposed coding technique consists of 3 stages: segmentation, contour coding. In this paper, emphasis was given to texture coding in order to improve a quality of an image. Split-and-merge method was employed for a segmentation. In the texture coding, a linear predictive coding(LPC), along with approximation technique based on a two-dimensional polynomial function was used to encode texture components. Depending on a size of region and a mean square error between an original and a reconstructed image, appropriate texture coding techniques were determined. A computer simulation on natural images indicates that an acceptable image quality at a compression ratio as high as 15-25 could be obtained. In comparison with a discrete cosine transform coding technique, which is the most typical coding technique in the first-generation coding, the proposed scheme leads to a better quality at compression ratio higher than 15-20.

Object-based image retrieval method is addressed. A new image segmentation algorithm and image comparing method between segmented objects are proposed. For image segmentation, color and texture features are extracted from each pixel in the image. These features we used as inputs into VQ (Vector Quantization) clustering method, which yields homogeneous objects in terns of color and texture. In this procedure, colors are quantized into a few dominant colors for simple representation and efficient retrieval. In retrieval case, two comparing schemes are proposed. Comparing between one query object and multi objects of a database image and comparing between multi query objects and multi objects of a database image are proposed. For fast retrieval, dominant object colors are key-indexed into database.

Concrete is an important material in most of civil constructions. Many properties of concrete can be determined through analysis of concrete images. Image segmentation is the first step for the most of these analyses. An automated system for segmentation of concrete images into microstructures using texture analysis is proposed. The performance of five different classifiers has been evaluated and the results show that using an Artificial Neural Network classifier is the best choice for an automatic image segmentation of concrete.

Segmentation of image data is an important problem in computer vision, remote sensing, and image analysis. Most objects in the real world have textured surfaces. Segmentation based on texture information is possible even if there are no apparent intensity edges between the different regions. There are many existing methods for texture segmentation and classification, based on different types of statistics that can be obtained from the gray-level images. In this paper, we use a neural network model --- ART-2 (Adaptive Resonance Theory) for textures in an image, proposed by Carpenter and Grossberg. In our experiments, we use Walsh matrix as feature value for textured image.
