Segmentation evaluation is an effective procedure for studying the performance of segmentation techniques, in which quality measure plays an important role. This paper presents a group of new objective quality measures for segmentation evaluation and compares their performances. In addition, to verify the effectiveness of these new measures, an appropriate classification of segmentation is proposed. According to this classification, several representative algorithms from different categories are selected for comparison testing. Some valuable results are obtained and presented.展开更多
