Accelerated superpixel image segmentation with a parallelized DBSCAN algorithm

Autor: Seng Cheong Loke, Burkhard C. Wünsche, Bruce A. MacDonald, Matthew Parsons

Publikováno v: Journal of Real-Time Image Processing. 18:2361-2376

Segmentation of an image into superpixel clusters is a necessary part of many imaging pathways. In this article, we describe a new routine for superpixel image segmentation (F-DBSCAN) based on the DBSCAN algorithm that is six times faster than previo
