Image Segmentation
Contact: Claudia Niewenhuis, Maria Klodt
Image segmentation aims at partitioning an image into n disjoint regions. Since this problem is highly ambiguous additional information is indispensible. This can be given as user input, e.g. scribbles on the image, additional constraints such as the center of gravity and the major axes of the object or learned from a given database. We formulate mostly convex energy functionals to solve this problem.
