Abstract
Image segmentation plays an important role in computer vision and image analysis. In this paper, image segmentation is formulated as a clustering problem under the BYY-RPCL framework. Our algorithm can automatically segment an image into regions with relevant textures or colors without the need to know the number of regions in advance. Its results are consistent with human perception.
