### 11.8. Simple Linear Iterative Clustering (SLIC)

#### 11.8.1. Översikt

This filter creates superpixels based on k-means clustering.

Superpixels are small cluster of pixels that share similar properties. Superpixels simplifies images with a great number of pixels making them more easy to be treated in many domains (computer vision, pattern recognition and machine intelligence). GIMP's aim is more humble: create a posterization effect.

k-means clustering is one of the most used algorithms to create superpixels. Superpixel color is the mean of pixels color in the corresponding region.

  Dessa alternativ beskrivs i Avsnitt 2, ”Gemensamma funktioner”.

Regions size

  Increasing regions size collects more pixels, and so superpixels size increases also.

  Figur 17.218. ”Regions size” example

  Regions size = 16

  Regions size = 32

Compactness

  Superpixels borders may be irregular. Increasing this option gives superpixels more regular border.

  Figur 17.219. ”Compactness” example

  Compactness = 20

  Compactness = 40: look at the dome.

Iterations

  How many times filter is repeated. Increasing this value gives more details.

  Figur 17.220. ”Regions size” example

  Iterations = 1 (default)

  Iterations = 15
