The Comparative Research on Image Segmentation Algorithms

As the premise of feature extraction and pattern recognition, image segmentation is one of the fundamental approaches of digital image processing. This paper enumerates and reviews main image segmentation algorithms, then presents basic evaluation methods for them, finally discusses the prospect of image segmentation. Some valuable characteristics of image segmentation come out after a large number of comparative experiments.
