Abstract | Grouping and segmentation of images remains a challenging problem in computer vision. Recently, a number of authors have demonstrated a good performance on this task using spectral methods that are based on the eigensolution of a similarity matrix. In this paper, we implement a variation of the existing methods that combines aspects from several of the best-known eigenvector segmentation algorithms to produce a discrete optimal solution of the relaxed continuous eigensolution. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005. |
