Segment image into foreground and background using graph. We treat image segmentation as a graph partitioning problem and propose a novel global criterion, the normalized cut, for segmenting the graph. Segmentation is a process that divides an image into its regions or objects that have similar methods for image segmentation layerbased segmentation blockbased segmentation region based clustering. Note that the roof of the building and the surface on which people are walking are approximately the same color in the image, so they are both assigned to the same cluster. Image segmentation is typically used to locate objects and boundaries lines, curves, etc. The third example is image segmentation where an implicit layer performs a normalised cut 29 using generalised eigenvalue calculations on the laplacian.
