Score: 5 points

The programs must be sent to the TA as MATLAB-scripts.

For certain images, objects of interest can be segmented using simple tools.
Although the rabbit in the picture below might think it is safely disguised by its color, we are already able to detect it, and to process all steps automatically to get a clear boundary of its shape.

Your task: compute the rabbit's shape boundary !

Hints:
The following pictures show the keysteps:

Image 1: The original image. A rabbit in nature, unaware of presently being automatically segmented.
Image 2: All pixels having a greater red than green ratio
Image 3: Some morphological miracle
Image 4: Another morphological miracle
Image 5: Finally: a morphological miracle

Can you imagine steps to achieve a better segmentation than in image 2 ?

Have fun !
