Spatio-Temporal Image Segmentation Based on Intensity and Motion Information

밝기 및 움직임 정보에 기반한 시공간 영상 분할

This paper presents a new morphological spatio-temporal segmentation algorithm. The algorithm incorporates intensity and motion information simultaneously, and uses morphological tools such as morphological filters and watershed algorithm. The procedure toward complete segmetnation consists of three steps: joint marker extraction, boundary decision, and motion-based region fusion. By incorporating spatial and temporal information simultaneously, we can obtain visually meaningful segmentation results. Simulation results demonstrates the efficiency of the proposed method.
