Bottom-up segmentation based only on low-level cues is a notoriously difficult problem. This difficulty has lead to recent top-down segmentation algorithms that are based on class-...
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...

Top-down visual saliency facilities object localization by providing a discriminative representation of target objects and a probability map for reducing the search space. In this...
This paper addresses the problem of recognizing shadows from monochromatic natural images. Without chromatic information, shadow classification is very challenging because the in...
Abstract. Robust foreground object segmentation via background modelling is a difficult problem in cluttered environments, where obtaining a clear view of the background to model i...
