Image matting deals with finding the probability that each pixel in an image belongs to a user specified `object' or to the remaining `background'. Most existing methods...
Image matting is the task of estimating a fore- and background
layer from a single image. To solve this ill posed
problem, an accurate modeling of the scene’s appearance
is ne...
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...
Abstract. Filter networks, i.e. decomposition of a filter set into a layered structure of sparse subfilters has been proven successful for e.g. efficient convolution using finit...
Abstract. We present some recent progress in designing and implementing two interactive image-based 3D modeling systems. The first system constructs 3D models from a collection of ...
