Abstract

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology and computer vision, image segmentation technology has become the core problem to be solved in the image processing process in machine vision.Color image has become a research hotspot because it has more information than gray image and is easy to recognize objects.In this paper, the existing color image segmentation algorithms are systematically reviewed, their advantages and disadvantages are analyzed, and the future development direction of color image segmentation technology is prospected in the conclusion section.
