Image Segmentation

Image segmentation is the process of dividing an image into meaningful parts or sections. This helps identify and isolate objects or regions within the image, making it easier to analyze. For example, in a photo of a street, segmentation can distinguish between cars, pedestrians, and the background. This technique is widely used in areas like medical imaging, autonomous vehicles, and facial recognition, allowing computers to interpret visual information more accurately, just as humans do when recognizing and categorizing objects in their surroundings.
