Abstract :
Image segmentation is very essential and critical to image processing and pattern recognition, but it is always a classical difficult problem. This paper introduces the basic conception of Image segmentation and gives a summary of image segmentation techniques available now, Such as “thresholding”, “clustering”, “edge detection”, as well as their advantages and disadvantages, providing some assistance for next research.
