Abstract :
Segmentation is a process for classifying different pixels which are in different range but color segmentation process of identifying the color of the pixel and segmenting the image into different color image. This color segmentation process is carried out by using WATERSHED algorithm which has been proposed earlier to identifying the pixels of same range and noise reduction process. This is applied in medical field for segmenting the MRI and CT scanned image for detecting the tumour present in the brain.
