A fuzzy dissimilarity function for region based segmentation of color images
In this paper a novel Fuzzy Rule Based Dissimilarity Function is presented, to determine the hierarchical merging sequence in a region based segmentation scheme. The proposed technique, based on distinct region features and fuzzy logic principles, is designed to cope with the problems inherent: in the segmentation task that the traditional merging cost functions cannot overcome. It combines the global (color) and local (spatial) information of the image to compare two adjacent regions in the rgb space. The validity of the approach has been subjectively and objectively verified for several types of color images such as head and shoulders, natural and texture images.
