Abstract

The problem of image segmentation is approached via finite state machines. Finite state machines are excellent tools in processing various vision tasks. In this paper, segmentation of radiograph images of welding scenes are considered. A Mealy machine has been designed to remove background nonhomogeneity and a Moore machine has been designed to isolate the welding defects from the background. Result of segmentation of several radiograph images using these finite state machines are given.
