Abstract

Due to the advancement of computer technology image-processing techniques have become increasingly important in a wide variety of applications. Image segmentation plays a important role in image processing. Image segmentation refers to partition of an image into different regions that are similar and different in some characteristics like color, intensity or texture. Different algorithms and techniques have been developed for image segmentation. This paper investigates and compiles some of the technologies used for image segmentation. The various segmentation techniques like Edge Detection, Threshold, Region based, Feature Based Clustering and Neural Network Image Segmentation were discussed in this paper
