Colour saliency-based parameter optimisation for adaptive colour segmentation

Ilea, Dana E. and Whelan, Paul F. orcid logoORCID: 0000-0001-9230-7656 (2009) Colour saliency-based parameter optimisation for adaptive colour segmentation. In: ICIP 2009 - 16th IEEE International Conference on Image Processing, 7-10 November 2009, Cairo, Egypt. ISBN 978-1-4244-5655-0

Abstract
In this paper we present a parameter optimisation procedure that is designed to automatically initialise the number of clusters and the initial colour prototypes required by data space partitioning techniques. The proposed optimisation approach involves a colour saliency measure used in conjunction with a SOM classification procedure. For evaluation purposes, we have integrated the proposed initialisation technique in an unsupervised colour segmentation scheme based on K-Means clustering and the evaluation has been carried out in the context of the unsupervised segmentation of natural images.
