Thresholding Techniques for
Segmentation
1 Global Thresholding
A single threshold value is applied to the entire image,
separating pixels based on their intensity.

2 Adaptive Thresholding
The threshold value is dynamically adjusted based on local
image characteristics, improving segmentation accuracy in
non-uniformly illuminated scenes.

3 Otsu's Method
An automated thresholding technique that identifies the
optimal threshold by minimizing the intra-class variance and
maximizing inter-class variance.
Region Growing and Merging
Algorithms
Region Growing
Seeds are selected within the image, and neighboring pixels
with similar characteristics are iteratively added to the region.

Region Merging
Initially, the image is divided into small regions, and neighboring
regions are merged based on similarity criteria.

Watershed Algorithm
An image is treated as a topographic map, and watersheds are
identified as boundaries between regions with distinct
characteristics.
