Image Segmentation and Image Matting for Foreground Extraction using Active Contour Based Method

Abstract

Image segmentation plays essential role in society for identification of objects, persons, and so on. The representation of the image is changed by the image segmentation method. It can change the boundaries and edges easily. It is used in the crime scene analysis for the identification of crime. An efficient method for image segmentation is proposed in this study. Active contour image segmentation method is used for segmentation in this study. The results are used in the code book algorithm. Experimental results show the performance of proposed method
