Abstract
The present invention relates to a clustering method for rosette scan images, comprising the steps of: (a) obtaining a subject image according to its rosette pattern; (b) converting the location information among the data of the subject image and arraying the converted information into a two-dimensional memory; (c) reading the image data arrayed in the two-dimensional memory from the first row and defining a portion of the data with continuous 1's as a partial cluster; (d) storing multiple partial clusters created upon the completion of the step (c) with respect to the said two-dimensional memory to the end; (e) examining the adjacency among the created multiple partial clusters; and (f) binding the adjacent partial clusters detected in the step (e) as an independent cluster.
