Summary

In this chapter, we learned about contour analysis and image segmentation. We learned how to match shapes based on a template. We learned about the various different properties of shapes and how we can use them to identify different kinds of shapes. We discussed image segmentation and how we can use graph-based methods to segment regions in an image. We briefly discussed watershed transformation as well.

In the next chapter, we are going to discuss how to track an object in a live video.
