What are the benefits of Watershed Segmentation in digital image processing?

What are the real-world (开发者_如何学Pythonpractical) benefits of Watershed Segmentation that's applied to digital images

thanks for all answerers!

Watershed with seeds well chosen can perform segmentation of objects of interest like chromosomes.

this paper is a good material for understanding watershed segmentation and it's uses Watersheds in digital space: An efficient algorithm based on immersion simulations also thier is anther one that is good too The watershed transform: Definitions,algorithms and parallelization strategies

Watershed transformation is a technique for segmentation
