Image Processing for Object Segmentation

Resource Overview

MATLAB-based image processing for object segmentation with morphological filtering post-processing

Detailed Documentation

Object segmentation using MATLAB image processing techniques enables effective separation of target objects from image backgrounds. The segmented results undergo additional refinement through morphological filtering to optimize image quality and definition. Morphological filtering applies operations including erosion and dilation to enhance edge characteristics and detail resolution. These processing stages collectively yield more precise and sophisticated object segmentation outcomes.

Implementation typically involves using region-based segmentation methods like watershed transform or edge detection algorithms such as Canny edge detector. Morphological processing utilizes structuring elements via strel() function to perform operations that clean up segmentation artifacts and improve object boundaries. The workflow may include area opening with bwareaopen() to remove small noise particles and morphological closing to fill object gaps.
