Summary note
"Choosing appropriate thresholding based on the existing image (Grayscale/RGB) and the assigned task is essential to attain better result and the complexity of the image thresholding is largely reduced with the help of a chosen heuristic algorithm technique. This book emphasizes various image thresholding methods that are necessary for image pre-processing and initial level enhancement. It presents a detailed evaluation, such as choosing the threshold function, need for the heuristic algorithm, choice of objective function, and evaluation of the outcome along with real-time applications in detail"-- Provided by publisher.
