Image Segmentations play a heavy role in areas such as computer vision and image processing due to its broad usage and immense applications. Because of the large importance of image segmentation a number of algorithms have been proposed and different approaches have been adopted. Segmentation divides an image into distinct regions containing each pixel with similar attributes. The objective of apportioning is to simplify and/or alter the representation of an image into something that is more

This paper discusses the various techniques implemented for image segmentation and discusses the various Computations that can be performed on the graphics processing unit (GPU) by means of the CUDA architecture in order to achieve fast performance and increase the utilization of available system resources.
