Automatic plant classification systems are essential for a wide range of applications including environment protection, plant resource survey, as well as for education. With the aid of advanced information technology, image processing and machine learning techniques, automatic plant identification and classification will enhance such systems with more functionality, such as automatic labeling and flexible searching. Image segmentation and object recognition are two aspects of digital image processing which are being increasingly used in many applications including leaf recognition. In this paper, the Preferential Image Segmentation (PIS) method is used to segment an object of interest from the original image. A probabilistic curve evolution method with particle filters is used to measure the similarity between shapes during matching process. The experimental results prove that the preferential image segmentation can be successfully applied in leaf recognition and segmentation from a plant image.
