The goal of segmentation is to partition an image into disjoint regions, in a manner consistent with human perception of the content. For unsupervised segmentation of general images, however, there is the competing requirement not to make prior assumptions about the scene. Here, a two-stage method for general image segmentation is proposed, which is capable of processing both textured and nontextured objects in a meaningful fashion. The first stage extracts texture features from the subbands of the dual-tree complex wavelet transform. Oriented median filtering is employed, to circumvent the problem of texture feature response at step edges in the image. From the processed feature images, a perceptual gradient function is synthesised, whose watershed transform provides an initial segmentation. The second stage of the algorithm groups together these primitive regions into meaningful objects.
