A Toolbox for Interactive Segmentation Based on Nested Partitions

This paper presents a toolbox for interactive image segmentation based on a series of nested partitions of increasing coarseness. The user can navigate among the different resolution levels and select regions with simple mouse clicks. The whole family of partitions can be created during a single morphological flooding of the image, leading to a very fast algorithm. The information is stored in a minimum spanning tree.
