This paper proposes a new image segmentation algorithm to detect the flame image from video in enclosed compartment. In order to avoid the contamination of soot and water vapor, this method first employs the cubic root of four color channels to transform a RGB image to a pseudo-gray one. Then the latter is divided into many small stripes (child images) and OTSU is employed to perform child image segmentation. Lastly, these processed child images are reconstructed into a whole image. A computer program using OpenCV library is developed and the new method is compared with other commonly used methods such as edge detection and normal Otsu’s method. It is found that the new method has better performance in flame image recognition accuracy and can be used to obtain flame shape from experiment video with much noise.

Digital color images are now one of the most popular data types used in the digital processing environment. Color image recognition plays an important role in many vital applications, which makes the enhancement of image recognition or retrieval system an important issue. Using color image pixels to recognize or retrieve the image, but the issue of the huge color image size that requires accordingly more time and memory space to perform color image recognition and/or retrieval. In the current study, image local contrast was used to create local contrast victor, which was then used as a key to recognize or retrieve the image. The proposed local contrast method was properly implemented and tested. The obtained results proved its efficiency as compared with other methods.
