Competitive Segmentation: A Struggle for Image Space
In this paper, we propose a competitive image segmentation algorithm. It is a dynamic evolving optimization method, which we call the population algorithm. The method is inspired f...

Graph-Theoretic Approach to Clustering and Segmentation
We develop a framework for the image segmentation problem based on a new graph-theoretic formulation of clustering. The approach is motivated by the analogies between the intuitiv...

Measures of Similarity
Quantitative evaluation and comparison of image segmentation algorithms is now feasible owing to the recent availability of collections of hand-labeled images. However, little att...

Simultaneous Registration and Segmentation of Anatomical Structures from Brain MRI
In this paper, we present a novel variational formulation of the registration assisted image segmentation problem which leads to solving a coupled set of nonlinear PDEs that are so...

Dead-End Elimination as a Heuristic for Min-Cut Image Segmentation
We apply the dead-end elimination (DEE) strategy from protein design as a heuristic for the max-flow/min-cut formulation of the image segmentation problem. DEE combines aspects of...

Learning to Detect A Salient Object
We study visual attention by detecting a salient object in an input image. We formulate salient object detection as an image segmentation problem, where we separate the salient obj...
