<br>
Split function.<br>
Is to develop a algorithm that recursively split regions into four<br>
sub-regions (starting with the whole image as one region)(Like a Quadtree)<br>
until our homogeneity criterion is met in all sub-regions.<br>
<br>
(For any region Ri, which P(Ri) = False , we split it into four disjoint<br>
quadrants.)<br>
<br>
One idea of the homogeneity criterion is using the "mean" of the regions and<br>
comparing each mean of the four sub-regions, if the difference is too far<br>
from the specified value. It keeps going until it either reaches 1 pixel or<br>
the mean difference is within the specified value range.<br>
<br>
Merge function.<br>
After process of splitting, merging process is to merge two adjacent<br>
regions.<br>
When no further splitting is possible, merge any adjacent regions Rj and Rk<br>
for which P(Rj U Rk) = True.<br>
Stop only if no further merging is possible.<br>
<br>
