Segmentation of Soft Shadows Based on a Daylight- and Penumbra Model
Abstract. This paper introduces a new concept within shadow segmentation for usage in shadow removal and augmentation through construction of an alpha overlay shadow model. Previou...

Alpha Channel Estimation in High Resolution Images and Image Sequences
For Motion Picture Special Effects, it is often necessary to take a source image of an actor, segment the actor from the unwanted background, and then composite over a new backgro...

Distancecut: Interactive Segmentation and Matting of Images and Videos
An interactive algorithm for soft segmentation and matting of natural images and videos is presented in this paper. The technique follows and extends [10], where the user first ro...

Noise-Contrastive Estimation of Unnormalized Statistical Models, with Applications to Natural Image Statistics
We consider the task of estimating, from observed data, a probabilistic model that is parameterized by a finite number of parameters. In particular, we are considering the situat...

KNN matting
We are interested in a general alpha matting approach for the simultaneous extraction of multiple image layers; each layer may have disjoint segments for material matting not limi...
