Abstract Image segmentation is a very important phase in automatic image analysis. Of the developed techniques for image segmentation, iterative methods have been proven to be one of the most effective algorithms in the literature. Mean shift algorithms is one of the iterative approaches which have been successfully deployed to many applications. However, despite its promising performance, mean shift has shown its weaknesses in convergence in some of the application areas. In this paper, an improved version of the standard mean-shift algorithm using a memory gradient method is proposed and implemented in order to achieve fast convergence rates by integrating mean shift and memory gradient. Experimental results on real images demonstrate that our proposed algorithm not only improves the efficiency of the classical mean shift algorithm, but also achieves better segmentation results.
