Abstract :
A new simple and efficient method for sky region segmentation is proposed. The dark channel algorithm used in the field of image haze removal is further developed for sky region segmentation. The proposed method can simply and efficiently achieve image segmentation without any pretreatment which is required in traditional segmentation methods. This method is also conducive to detecting the distant fuzzy scene and suppressing the interference around the segmented object.
