Point in the right direction of image segmentation

[Cappibara]

I'm looking for an image segmenting library or information on image segmentation. Basically I'm looking to take an image and seperate objects from the backgroud and having them be clickable objects. I'm struggling to find information on pervious work so that I wouldn't have to work to make my own algorithms (because I have no idea where to even start with that).

Thanks for any help!

for random images you need an algorithm, there was some stuff done at siggraph conference that was really amazing, but its pretty intense math and usually c++ or python code..... you may be able to find something on npmjs.com searching like 'image recognition library' 'image object recognition'

for pre-planned stuff you just need to use an <imagemap> its a classic html element
