Implementing the 'GrabCut' segmentation technique as a plugin for the GIMP
conference contribution
posted on 2006-01-01, 00:00 authored by M Marsh, Shaun BangayShaun Bangay, A LobbImage segmentation requires a segmentation tool that is fast and easy to use. The GIMP has built in segmentation tools, but under some circumstances these tools perform badly. "GrabCut" is an innovative segmentation technique that uses both region and boundary information in order to perform segmentation. Several variations on the "GrabCut" algorithm have been implemented as a plugin for the GIMP. The results obtained using "GrabCut" are comparable, and often better than the results of all the other built in segmentation tools.
