Cuboid colour image segmentation using intuitive distance measure

Abstract

In this paper, an improved algorithm for cuboid image segmentation is proposed. To address the two main limitations of the recently proposed cuboid segmentation algorithm, the improved algorithm substitutes colour quantization in HCL colour space with infinity norm distance in RGB colour space along with a different way to impose area thresholding. We also propose a new metric to evaluate the quality of segmentation. Experimental results show that the proposed cuboid segmentation algorithm significantly outperforms the existing cuboid segmentation algorithm in terms of quality of segmentation.International Conference Image and Vision Computing New Zealan
