Abstract

This paper presents a new normalized cut algorithm using a bilateral filter for fast transmission in Intelligent Traffic Control System (ITS) based on ubiquitous technology. The algorithm employs a bilateral filter to produce a binarized image used to extract outlines with the Canny Edge algorithm then applies dilation with improved normalized cut to extract objects from the image. The result of the proposed method was compared to the results of the normalized cut algorithm using the K-Means clustering technique and showed that the new algorithm reduced the processing time for extracting objects, causing much faster data transmission on uTSN.
