A method is provided for classifying pixels in an image into super pixels that may be executed in one or more than one electronic devices. Seed pixels are pixels selected from the image. Color distances of a color space similar to human vision perception between the seed pixels and proximal pixels are calculated. The proximal pixels are pixels located proximally to corresponding seed pixels. Geographic distances are also computed for two pixels and the geographic distances are combined with the color distances as a reference for classifying pixels into super pixels.
