I have an image of a leaf on a poorly white screen and need to find out just the leaf:
The problem is that it contains greenish shadows, so simple color-based methods are not enough. Thus, I need some preprocessing to achieve an uniform background and to enhance important features. The goal is to delete undesired noise and distortions to apply an Expectation Maximization algorithm.
I tried playing with OpenCV fastNlMeansDenoising, but it is not sufficient.
