Simply recognizing an object in an image can be a daunting step for a computer algorithm. The methodologies are often simple but rely heavily on the thresholding of the image. The operation of turning a color or gray-scale image into a black and white image is a determining step in the effectiveness of a solution. Thresholding methods perform differently in various problems where they are often used locally. Global thresholding is a difficult task in most problems. We highlight a pseudo Bayesian and a linear regression global thresholding methods that performed well in an engineering problem. The same approaches can be used in biomedical applications where the environment is better controlled. %K Classification %K Image Thresholding %K Probability %K Linear Regression %U http://versita.metapress.com/content/03u0219802234u53/?p=53ad911483d7453a9aee5a84d9caafec&pi=7
