An adaptive method for image thresholding

Thresholding is a traditional tool for image regions classification based on their grey-level properties, especially when there are two kinds of homogeneous regions of intensity say, object and background. A new global thresholding scheme is described in this paper. Unlike the previously developed methods the approach proposed is independent of the object/background areas ratio, intensity transition slope and object/background shape; it is also resistant to noise.<
