Abstract :
A general approach for achieving color image segmentation using uniform-chromaticity-scale perceptual color attributes is proposed. At first chromatic and achromatic areas in a perceptual IHS color space are defined. Then the image is separated into chromatic and achromatic regions according to the region locations in the color space. 1-D histogram thresholding for each color attribute is performed to split the chromatic and achromatic regions, respectively. Finally the region growing is used to solve the oversegmentation problem. In an experiment the power of the proposed approach is demonstrated
