An unsupervised color image segmentation algorithm is presented, using a Markov random field (MRF) pixel classification model. We propose a new method to estimate initial mean vectors effectively even if the histogram does not have clearly distinguishable peaks. The only parameter supplied by the user is the number of classes. {\textcopyright} 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
