    • The present invention relates to a method for encoding the borders of pixel regions of an image, wherein the borders contain a sequence of vertices subdividing the image into regions of pixels (superpixels), by generating a sequence of symbols from an alphabet including the step of: defining for each superpixel a first vertex for coding the borders of the superpixel according to a criterion common to all superpixels; defining for each superpixel the same coding order of the border vertices, either clockwise or counter-clockwise; defining the order for coding the superpixels on the base of a common rule depending on the relative positions of the first vertices; defining a set of vertices as a known border, wherein the following steps are performed for selecting a symbol of the alphabet, for encoding the borders of the superpixels: a) determining the first vertex of the next superpixel border individuated by the common criterion; b) determining the next vertex to be encoded on the basis of the coding direction; c) selecting a first symbol (“0”) for encoding the next vertex if the next vertex of a border pertains to the known border, d) selecting a symbol (“1”; “2”) different from the first symbol (“0”) if the next vertex is not in the known border; e) repeating steps b), c), d) and e) until all vertices of the superpixel border have been encoded; f) adding each vertex of the superpixel border that was not in the known border to the set; g) determining the next superpixel whose border is to be encoded according to the common rule, if any; i) repeating steps a)-g) until the borders of all the superpixels of the image have being added to the known border.
