A comparative study of interactive segmentation with different number of strokes on complex images

Interactive image segmentation is the way to extract an object of interest with the guidance of the user. The guidance from the user is an iterative process until the required object of interest had been segmented. Therefore, the input from the user as well as the understanding of the algorithms bas...
