Developing an Efficient Region Growing Engine for Image Segmentation
Image segmentation is a crucial part of image processing applications. Currently available approaches require significant computer power to handle large images. We present an effi...

A Variational Approach to Exploit Prior Information in Object-Background Segregation: Application to Retinal Images
One of the main challenges in image segmentation is to adapt prior knowledge about the objects/regions that are likely to be present in an image, in order to obtain more precise d...

Robust Image Segmentation with Mixtures of Student's t-Distributions
Gaussian mixture models have been widely used in image segmentation. However, such models are sensitive to outliers. In this paper, we consider a robust model for image segmentati...

TAC: Thresholding active contours
In this paper, we describe a region-based active contour technique to perform image segmentation. We propose an energy functional that realizes an explicit trade-off between the (...

Segmentation with Pairwise Attraction and Repulsion
We propose a method of image segmentation by integrating pairwise attraction and directional repulsion derived from local grouping and figure-ground cues. These two kinds of pairw...

An Expectation Maximization Approach to the Synergy between Image Segmentation and Object Categorization
In this work we deal with the problem of modelling and exploiting the interaction between the processes of image segmentation and object categorization. We propose a novel framewo...
