We present a rough and an accurate segmentation of natural color images using a fuzzy region-growing algorithm. In the proposed method, the color difference and the color gradient are used as the pixel features to produce an accurate segmentation, while the local fractal dimension is used as the region feature to yield a rough segmentation in a natural color image. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed through computer simulations that demonstrate a rough segmentation at the fine-texture regions and an accurate segmentation at the strong-edge regions simultaneously.
