7th International Conference on Energy Minimization Methods in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, Bonn, Germany, August 24-27, 2009 Medical image segmentation appears to be ...
We present a new contour-based background-subtraction technique to extract foreground objects in widely varying thermal imagery. Statistical background-subtraction is first used t...
This paper proposes a new evolutionary region merging method in order to efficiently improve segmentation quality results. Our approach starts from an oversegmented image, which is...
Graph cut is a popular technique for interactive image segmentation. However, it has certain shortcomings. In particular, graph cut has problems with segmenting thin elongated obj...
We introduce a new graph-theoretic approach to image segmentation based on minimizing a novel class of `mean cut' cost functions. Minimizing these cost functions corresponds ...
