A new method for the lossy compression of segmentation maps is presented. In the first stage of the proposed algorithm, region boundary segments are coded, providing a coarse poly...
In this work, we investigate how to automatically reassign the manually annotated labels at the image-level to those contextually derived semantic regions. First, we propose a bi-...

We propose a novel, self-validating approach for detecting curved reflection symmetry patterns from real, unsegmented images. Our method benefits from the observation that any curv...
We propose an information-theoretic method for multi-phase image segmentation, in an active contour-based framework. Our approach is based on nonparametric density estimates, and ...

In this paper we incorporate recent results from AM-FM models for texture analysis into the variational model of image segmentation and examine the potential benefits of using the...
