摘要
Segmentation of image regions based on their texture is a standard problem in image analysis. Once a set of texture features is selected, several algorithms can be applied to segment the image into regions. This paper presents an extension of the watershed algorithm using a vector gradient and multivariate region merging methods. The algorithm uses a set of texture images, and it only depends on an adjustable parameter. Results are presented on a standard set of synthetic images and on textured medical ones, using different texture parameters and merging criteria. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
