Abstract: In CCD astronomical measurement technology, the accuracy of star point centroid coordinate extraction directly affects the coordinate precision of field astronomical measurement, and star image segmentation algorithm is the most critical part of digital star image processing technology. The one-dimensional maximum entropy star image segmentation algorithm has a very good binarization effect, and can fully retain the information of star image, and its reliability and accuracy have been experimentally verified. Based on the one-dimensional maximum entropy star image segmentation algorithm, this paper proposes an improved star point region partitioning algorithm, which can greatly improve the computational efficiency of the one-dimensional maximum entropy algorithm without reducing the accuracy and reliability, and improve the efficiency of field astronomical measurement operations. The availability of astronomical measurement operations has better applicability in practical operations.
