Zuoyong Li, Guanghai Liu, David Zhang, Yong Xu

Abstract: Highlights•We propose a robust salient transition region-based image segmentation method.•It adequately uses transition region for image segmentation from a new viewpoint.•It alleviates the limitations of transition region-based image thresholding.•It significantly improves accuracy and robustness of image segmentation.•It keeps the nature of image thresholding, easy operation and high efficiency.
