ABSTRACT
Figure 4.2.2 shows the result of thresholding, it segments the exact features from the
image. It segments the image into two, one in foreground and another in background. Mostly
the results of thresholding are reasonable.

Figure 4.3.2 shows the result of region growing; it segments features of the image into
two parts.
Figure 4.4.2 shows the result of edge detection it segments the very fine features from
the image.
On observing these techniques, edge detection yields better result with images that are
having fine features such as flower, river and satellite images. Thresholding technique is best
with images that are having fewer features such as face and fruit images. Single seeded
region growing separate the image into parts according to features in the image. Clustering
technique segments the image according to color features in the image. Thus by analyzing the
results of these segmentation techniques with some images, region growing and thresholding
gives better results than clustering and edge detection.
