Abstract
A novel method of region segmentation for an image is disclosed. Specifically, region segmentation is accomplished by dividing the image into a plurality of sticks of pixels and determining whether each stick belongs to any region from a set of region. Each stick that belongs to any region is classified as belonging to a specific region.
