Spatiotemporal Saliency Detection: State of Art
Saliency detection has become a very prominent subject for research in recent time. Many techniques has been defined for the saliency detection.In this paper number of techniques has been explained that include the saliency detection from the year 2000 to 2015, almost every technique has been included.all the methods are explained briefly including their advantages and disadvantages. Comparison between various techniques has been done. With the help of table which includes authors name,paper name,year,techniques,algorithms and challenges. A comparison between levels of acceptance rates and accuracy levels are made
Lucid Data Dreaming for Video Object Segmentation
Convolutional networks reach top quality in pixel-level video object
segmentation but require a large amount of training data (1k~100k) to deliver
such results. We propose a new training strategy which achieves
state-of-the-art results across three evaluation datasets while using 20x~1000x
less annotated data than competing methods. Our approach is suitable for both
single and multiple object segmentation. Instead of using large training sets
hoping to generalize across domains, we generate in-domain training data using
the provided annotation on the first frame of each video to synthesize ("lucid
dream") plausible future video frames. In-domain per-video training data allows
us to train high quality appearance- and motion-based models, as well as tune
the post-processing stage. This approach allows to reach competitive results
even when training from only a single annotated frame, without ImageNet
pre-training. Our results indicate that using a larger training set is not
automatically better, and that for the video object segmentation task a smaller
training set that is closer to the target domain is more effective. This
changes the mindset regarding how many training samples and general
"objectness" knowledge are required for the video object segmentation task.Comment: Accepted in International Journal of Computer Vision (IJCV

A words-of-interest model of sketch representation for image retrieval
In this paper we propose a method for sketch-based image retrieval. Sketch is a magical medium which is capable of conveying semantic messages for user. It’s in accordance with user’s cognitive psychology to retrieve images with sketch. In order to narrow down the semantic gap between the user and the images in database, we preprocess all the images into sketches by the coherent line drawing algorithm. During the process of sketches extraction, saliency maps are used to filter out the redundant background information, while preserve the important semantic information. We use a variant of Words-of-Interest model to retrieve relevant images for the user according to the query. Words-of-Interest (WoI) model is based on Bag-ofvisual Words (BoW) model, which has been proven successfully for information retrieval. Bag-of-Words ignores the spatial relationships among visual words, which are important for sketch representation. Our method takes advantage of the spatial information of the query to select words of interest. Experimental results demonstrate that our sketch-based retrieval method achieves a good tradeoff between retrieval accuracy and semantic representation of users’ query
Inner and Inter Label Propagation: Salient Object Detection in the Wild
In this paper, we propose a novel label propagation based method for saliency
detection. A key observation is that saliency in an image can be estimated by
propagating the labels extracted from the most certain background and object
regions. For most natural images, some boundary superpixels serve as the
background labels and the saliency of other superpixels are determined by
ranking their similarities to the boundary labels based on an inner propagation
scheme. For images of complex scenes, we further deploy a 3-cue-center-biased
objectness measure to pick out and propagate foreground labels. A
co-transduction algorithm is devised to fuse both boundary and objectness
labels based on an inter propagation scheme. The compactness criterion decides
whether the incorporation of objectness labels is necessary, thus greatly
enhancing computational efficiency. Results on five benchmark datasets with
pixel-wise accurate annotations show that the proposed method achieves superior
performance compared with the newest state-of-the-arts in terms of different
evaluation metrics.Comment: The full version of the TIP 2015 publicatio
