Robert Otsu
Robert Otsu was a Japanese scientist known for developing Otsu's method, a technique in image processing that automatically finds the best way to distinguish objects from the background. It works by analyzing the pixel brightness levels in a photo to determine a threshold that separates different parts of the image, making it easier to identify features like text or objects without manual adjustment. This method is widely used in computer vision, medical imaging, and other fields where accurate image segmentation is essential.
