Technology is spreading its wonders in all fields that surround the globe. Manual work has been reduced and altered with computer based. A technology that showcases its efficiency in the process of pattern recognition based on images and image enhancements is said to be digital image processing. This process have a very important position in numerous fields for the purpose of retrieving required set of information from the provided image/picture without disturbing the rest of the image. Image segmentation is one of the most important and focused part in image processing; furthermore it is the root process. The role of image segmentation is to divide or part the given image into many parts, these parts are said to be segments and from the segments the required information is extracted. The main focus of this paper is to produce and to understand the importance and usage of various image segmentation techniques followed in image processing.
