Computer vision systems frequently employ colour segmentation as a step of feature extraction. This is particularly crucial in an environment where important features are colour-coded, such as robot soccer. This paper describes a method for determining an appropriate colour model by measuring the compactness and separation of clusters produced by the
k
-means algorithm.

colour models are assessed for a selection of artificial and real images, utilising an implementation of the Dunn’s-based cluster validation index. The effectiveness of the method is assessed by qualitatively comparing the relative correctness of the segmentation to the results of the cluster validation. Results demonstrate a significant variation in segmentation quality among colour spaces, and that YC
