Image Segmentation

edited February 2010 in Science & Tech
hye guys,
currently i'm doing a project on human gender detection using human hand image. I'm a beginner user when it came to Matlab. so I wanna seek help to do the image segmentation. The method is to capture image of human hand then measure the length and breadth of their hand. Then divide both and multiply with 100 to obtain the percentage. After obtain the result, i should compare it with the sample data that i have already collect through survey. It quite easy to say but when i try to generate the program, i'm quite confuse on the way to use all the matlab command. plz help. :eek3:

    You're asking for a whole lot of information, and telling us very little...

    1) I assume the images of the hands will be provided beforehand, rather than you needing to capture them inside matlab...

    2) Do you know how to do image segmentation outside of matlab?

    3) Do you know how to extract the height/width of a hand outside matlab?


    You should try the following:
    -develop the math/equations behind how you're going to do 2) and 3)
    -try to code them in matlab

    It's hard to help you because you're basically saying "show me how to build a house using bricks", and I don't know what you've tried or designed yet.

    haha.. sorry about that. Yup, the image will be provide by capture using camera. umm.. i not quite understand by outside of matlab. Is it manually?:confused2

    The process of "image segmentation" requires several steps, and a rudimentary knowledge of image processing. Have you designed the algorithm in pseudocode yet? (Pseudocode is a really rough listing of steps of how you're going to do the task)
