Embodiment
With reference to figure 1, the flow chart of color image segmentation method according to a preferred embodiment of the invention wherein has been described, input color image (step 102), and the pixel value of input picture is quantized into several represent pixel values (step 104).For the image in the natural scene of classifying, the represent pixel value is made up of 10-20 value.In the present embodiment, using the Three Represents pixel value to carry out for convenience of description quantizes.Below, form class figure (step 106) by specifying corresponding to the represent pixel value that quantizes.
Best, the regulation window is in the center of aiming in the entire image processed pixel.That is, when d is a positive integer, be preferably between 3 to 10, the center of regulation window B aligned pixel P, and have the size of d * d.And, suppose i be 1 and C between number, and Zi is the collection of all pixels among the window B.In other words, suppose that Zi is divided into C class.The d of best definition window size is the integer of considering between 3 to 10.
And hypothesis m iBe at class Z iIn N iThe mean value of the position of data point, as follows:
(formula 1)
m i = 1 N i Σ z ∈ Z i Z
And, S TAnd S WBe defined as follows respectively:
(formula 2)
S T = Σ z ∈ Z | | z - m i | | 2 And
(formula 3)
S W = Σ i = 1 c Si = Σ z ∈ Z | | z - m i | | 2
Obtain the J-value (step 108) relevant below with each pixel among the class figure.The J-value defined relevant with each pixel among the class figure is as follows:
(formula 4)
J = S B S W = S T - S W S W
The J-value that is obtained by formula 4 is converted into the gray value between 0 to 255, has the gray scales image (step 110) that these values also can be known as the J-image so that obtain.The J-image has as comprising that reality represents the same form of the three-dimensional land map on the mountain valley of regional center and zone boundary and mountain peak respectively.
Preferably cut apart J-image (step 112) according to the region growing method.The region growing method is well known to those of ordinary skill in the art as the method for cutting apart that is used for digital picture, therefore no longer provides its explanation.
Fig. 2 A to 2C explanation is according to the class figure and the J-value of the color image segmentation method formation of Fig. 1.In the class figure of Fig. 2 A, the J-value of center pixel is 1.720, and in the class figure of Fig. 2 B, the J-value of center pixel is 0, and in the class figure of Fig. 2 C, the J-value of center pixel obtains as 0.855.Here,, be positioned at the pixel of the usefulness on the left side of center pixel+represent, be positioned at the pixel that the usefulness 0 on the right of center pixel represents and the right that is positioned at center pixel and use as in the class figure of Fig. 2 A *The pixel of expression roughly clearly forms under the situation in zone, and the J-value is a big relatively value 1.720.And as in the class figure of Fig. 2 B, the pixel of use+representing and with 0 pixel of representing and usefulness *The pixel of expression is even distribution, and is difficult to form under the situation in zone, and the J-value is 0.And, be positioned at the usefulness on the right of center pixel as in the class figure of Fig. 2 C *The pixel of expression forms the zone, but is difficult under the regional situation of formation with the+pixel represented and with 0 pixel of representing, the J-value is 0.855.That is, bigger J-value is the situation on pixel-by-pixel basis near field border most probably, therefore, uses this point can carry out cutting apart based on the region growing method.
Fig. 3 A and 3B have illustrated the class figure of cutting apart.
Must check whether to have carried out well and cut apart, and whether represent the value identical with quantized value for each zone among the class figure of cutting apart.For this purpose, work as J kBe the J-value that obtains corresponding to k-zone, and Mk is k regional pixel number, and N is when being pixel number among the class figure total, average J-value is calculated as follows:
(formula 5)
J = 1 N Σ K M K J K
Whether the value of being calculated is represented as quantized value and regardless of having carried out well for each zone among the class figure of cutting apart cuts apart.
In the situation of the class figure of cutting apart shown in Fig. 3 A, J is 0, and on the other hand, in the situation of the class figure of cutting apart shown in Fig. 3 B, J is 0.05.That is, under the regional situation of fixed qty, special under situation about cutting apart preferably, average J-value is little.This situation occurs and be because when well being cut apart in the zone, the zone comprises equally distributed color classification seldom, and therefore, average J-value is little.
A picture frame of " container " of the test pattern that Fig. 4 A explanation is cut apart as a test pattern and by color image segmentation method according to the present invention.With reference to figure 4A, the J of image is 0.232 before cutting apart, but the J after cutting apart is 0.071.And it is the illustration that test pattern is cut apart well.
A picture frame of " section chief " of the test pattern that Fig. 4 B explanation explanation is cut apart as a test pattern and by color image segmentation method according to the present invention.With reference to figure 4B, the J of image is 0.238 before cutting apart, but the J after cutting apart is 0.105.And it is the illustration that test pattern is cut apart well.
A picture frame at " beach " of the test pattern that Fig. 4 C explanation is cut apart as a test pattern and by color image segmentation method according to the present invention.With reference to figure 4C, the J of image is 0.494 before cutting apart, but the J after cutting apart is 0.093.And it is the illustration that test pattern is cut apart well.
A picture frame in " garden " of the test pattern that Fig. 4 D explanation is cut apart as a test pattern and by color image segmentation method according to the present invention.With reference to figure 4D, the J of image is 0.435 before cutting apart, but the J after cutting apart is 0.088.And it is the illustration that test pattern is cut apart well.
A picture frame of " mother and the daughter " of the test pattern that Fig. 4 E explanation is cut apart as a test pattern and by color image segmentation method according to the present invention.With reference to figure 4E, the J of image is 0.438 before cutting apart, but the J after cutting apart is 0.061.And it is the illustration that test pattern is cut apart well.
That is, described as reference Fig. 4 A to 4E, littler according to the J of color image segmentation method split image of the present invention than the J of the image before cutting apart.
In the above-described embodiments, explained the calculating of specific function as an example.Be not limited to this embodiment in appended scope of the present invention, and, can use the function of the other variation in various degree of the color of representing peripheral pixel obviously for those of ordinary skills.
And above-mentioned color image segmentation method can be realized with computer program.The code of coding and code segment are easily under the technical staff's of computer realm help.And this program can be stored in the computer-readable medium, can be read and carry out by computer, so it can realize color image processing method.Medium comprises magnetizing mediums, light medium and carrier wave.
As mentioned above, according to the present invention, coloured image can automatically be cut apart under the assistance that does not have the user, and is sane for the input picture that contains noise.
Utilizability on the industry
