We'll implement these algorithms in Compute Shaders and C# to eventually implement color palette selection and region segmentation for our Paint by Numbers generator. We'll also explore a few supporting topics, including the CIELAB color space to see if it allows us to better select our palette colors from the original image, a simple blur technique to smooth out the image details, and feeding the SLIC output into our K-Means algorithm for a nice performance boost.
