Acquisition of fruit region in green apple image based on the combination of segmented regions

摘要

To acquire the fruit region of green apple image in close color more completely, this work designed a method of region extraction before fruit region combination. Firstly, channel images in every color space were analyzed to determine appropriate color channel images: images of G and b color channel in RGB and Lab color spaces, respectively. Then, these images were segmented by K-means clustering to obtain segmented images of G and b color channel. Post-processing was conducted to different segmentation results. For example, open operation and micro-region elimination were conducted to segmented image of G color channel. The same processing was conducted to b color channel image after combining with above processed G color channel image and filling holes. Therefore, the target fruit region can be acquired completely. The validity of this method was verified by experiment.
