Talk:Image segmentation

Untitled
It seems to me that connectedness for a digital image is rather distinct from just general "connected." I'd be willing to write up something about this, but I'm not sure if it would be seen as a little too specialized? Is this definition of connectedness too esoteric to add to the "connected" page?

Topic accessibility
There is a stark lack of images for a topic that could be much more intuitively be explained using diagrams, pictures etc. Admittedly I am not saying that I possess such visuals, merely suggesting this is the direction in which I believe the article should be improved. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.212.199.56 (talk) 12:19, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Amendment: I did not realize that this edit request was asking for a restoration of a reverted edit until I checked the user's contribution history after fulfilling the edit request. In my opinion, simply adding a reference does not qualify as undue weight, this reference does support the claim given in the article, and there is no obvious indication that the journal cited is an unreliable source. If any editor feels strongly that this reference should not be included because of COI concerns, they are free to revert me. If they feel that a talk page discussion is the more appropriate course of action, I am open to that also. Altamel (talk) 02:34, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Proposal: Adding Semantic Segmentation and Instance Segmentation
To my knowledge, there are at least three kinds of segmentation that are widely studied in computer vision:
 * Image Segmentation (covered extensively this article), which outputs the contours of the image
 * Semantic Segmentation, which outputs the object label of every pixel, which visually looks like a segmentation map. (look at for some examples)
 * Instance Segmentation, which labels every pixel as a member of an instance an object, or as a background pixel. (look at for some examples)

So far, Semantic Segmentation and Instance Segmentation do not seem to have a home on Wikipedia. I am thinking of adding a short description of each to the end of this article. I would also incorporate the U-Net paragraph (which is currently in the Trainable segmentation section) into the new Semantic Segmentation section. Given that most of the other sections of this article are various techniques for Image Segmentation, the change of topic to Semantic Segmentation and then Instance Segmentation at the end of the article will be somewhat abrupt.

I will probably do this sometime in the next few weeks, but I first wanted to see if anyone had any alternate suggestions for how to incorporate these topics. 104gli (talk) 21:46, 29 November 2019 (UTC)

Segmentation for biological images
Where would be a good place to write more specifically about image segmentation for biological applications, including a table of existing methods, in particular for microscopy images. Should this article be extended or a new article created? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sjrahi (talk • contribs) 10:48, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

Interactive segmentation section should be removed
The section on interactive segmentation reads like an advertisement for a certain lab/academic and not a general method. I think this page would be improved if this section were deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomhallward (talk • contribs) 02:02, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
