Abstract

Image segmentation plays an important role in automatic visual inspection of food product using computer vision system. However, segmentation of food product image is not easily performed if the image has low contrast with its background or the background in acquired image is not homogeneous. This paper proposes a method for automatic food product image segmentation using Sobel operator and k-means clustering. Sobel operator was used to determine region of interest (ROI). k-means clustering was then used to separate object and background in ROI. The area outside ROI was considered as background. The proposed method has been validated using 100 images of food product from ten different types. The experimental results show that the proposed method achieves good segmentation result.
