It is a key step from image processing to image analysis. In the mid-1950s, people began to study image segmentation. For decades, various methods for image segmentation have been proposed. In this paper, traditional image segmentation methods and some new methods appearing in recent years were reviewed. Thresholding segmentation methods, region-based, edge detection-based and segmentation methods based on specific theoretical tools were introduced in detail.展开更多

A generation method of insulator region proposals based on edge boxes is proposed in this paper, and edge boxes are applied to the localization of insulators in inspection images creatively. We take a series of operations to generate insulator region proposals: K-means cluster is used on curvature scale space(CSS) points extracted from edge images, the most appropriate cluster number is chosen, and the circle is drawn on the insulator subclass. We consider the characteristics of insulators' edge images, and combine these characteristics with edge boxes. As a result, more insulator region proposals are displayed. The experimental results show that our method can effectively reduce the interference area, meanwhile, has high quality of region proposals with fast calculation speed.展开更多
