An evaluation of the compactness of superpixels
We propose a metric to measure the compactness of superpixel segmentations. We show that there is a negative correlation between compactness and boundary recall. The proposed algorithm offers a transparent compactness control. The segmentation optionally conforms to a superpixel lattice. An example application demonstrates the relevance of controlling compactness.
