Abstract :
Presents an algorithm to segment images dynamically and in real-time. The proposed approach utilizes a recursive learning model for thresholding each individual pixel in an image. A VLSI design and implementation of the thresholder is presented. The system features high reliability and effectively applicable to a variety of signals and images
