Abstract
Techniques are described for obtaining at least one image using at least one processor. The techniques may include selecting a plurality of objects defined by a plurality of pixels within the at least one image. The techniques may include determining perceptual information associated with each of the plurality of objects and generating a context for each of the plurality of pixels that define the plurality of objects. The techniques may also include automatically thresholding the at least one image to generate an output image that represents the at least one image.
