An efficient multilevel image thresholding method based on improved heap-based optimizer

Abstract Image segmentation is the process of separating pixels of an image into multiple classes, enabling the analysis of objects in the image. Multilevel thresholding (MTH) is a method used to perform this task, and the problem is to obtain an optimal threshold that properly segments each image....
