Image for Connected Component Labeling

Connected Component Labeling

Connected Component Labeling is an image processing technique used to identify and categorize groups of connected pixels that share certain features, like color or intensity. For example, in a black-and-white image, it can find all the white regions (objects) by linking neighboring white pixels together. This process assigns a unique label to each connected group, making it easier to analyze or manipulate specific parts of the image. It's commonly used in computer vision, object recognition, and image analysis to distinguish individual objects within a visual scene.
