We propose a novel Active Volume Model (AVM) which deforms in a free-form manner to minimize energy. Unlike Snakes and level-set active contours which only consider curves or surfa...
Abstract. Figure/ground assignment is a key step in perceptual organization which assigns contours to one of the two abutting regions, providing information about occlusion and all...
Abstract. In this study, we present a new multi-band image representation for improving AAM segmentation accuracy for illumination invariant face alignment. AAM is known to be very...
Detection of visually salient image regions is useful for
applications like object segmentation, adaptive compression,
and object recognition. In this paper, we introduce
a meth...

Most image segmentation algorithms optimize some mathematical similarity criterion derived from several low-level image features. One possible way of combining different types of f...
