Abstract :
Fast level set method has been applied to grey images segmentation. In order to implement segmentation for images with shadows and/or highlights, the dichromatic reflection model is combined with fast level set method. Experimental results show that fast level set method with the dichromatic reflection model can segment the image with shadows and highlights successfully, while the method without the support of dichromatic reflection model can not. The performance of the new method is better than fast level set method without the support of dichromatic reflection model.
