摘要
The co-occurrence matrix approach, considering locally spatial variation of graylevels in image data, has demonstrated its application in image thresholding. Diverse measures based upon this type of matrices were proposed for selecting optimal thresholds by fully evaluating all possible values. We explore computational parallelism and present a modified computing procedure that is easily hardware-implemented and more efficient in both time and space complexities. Analysis shows that our algorithm is most promising for locally adaptive thresholding.
