Saliency of Interest Points under Scale Changes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Interest point detectors are commonly employed to reduce the amount of data to be processed. The ideal interest point detector would robustly select those features which are most appropriate or salient for the application and data at hand. There is however a tradeoff between the robustness and the discriminance of the selected features. Whereas robustness in terms of repeatability is relatively well explored, the discriminance of interest points is rarely discussed. This paper formalizes the notion of saliency and evaluates three state-of-the-art interest point detectors with respect to their capability of selecting salient image features in two recognition settings.

Gaze distribution analysis and saliency prediction across age groups
Knowledge of the human visual system helps to develop better computational models of visual attention. State-of-the-art models have been developed to mimic the visual attention system of young adults that, however, largely ignore the variations that occur with age. In this paper, we investigated how visual scene processing changes with age and we propose an age-adapted framework that helps to d...
متن کاملSaliency Detection in Large Point Sets – Supplementary 1 Quantitative evaluation
We evaluated our algorithm on the Benchmark for 3D Interest Point Detection Algorithms [2], whose goal is to provide quantitative evaluation for detecting interest points vs. human-marked points. The benchmark contains 43 models organized in two data sets. Data-set A includes 24 of the models for which 23 human subjects have marked the interest points. Dataset B contains all the 43 models marke...
متن کاملVisual Saliency Based Multiple Objects Segmentation and its Parallel Implementation for Real-Time Vision Processing
This paper presents a segmentation method of multiple object regions based on visual saliency. Our method comprises three steps. First, attentional points are detected using saliency maps (SMs). Subsequently, regions of interest (RoIs) are extracted using scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT). Finally, foreground regions are extracted as object regions using GrabCut. Using RoIs as teaching s...
متن کاملGraph-based Visual Saliency Model using Background Color
Visual saliency is a cognitive psychology concept that makes some stimuli of a scene stand out relative to their neighbors and attract our attention. Computing visual saliency is a topic of recent interest. Here, we propose a graph-based method for saliency detection, which contains three stages: pre-processing, initial saliency detection and final saliency detection. The initial saliency map i...
متن کاملCompressed-Sampling-Based Image Saliency Detection in the Wavelet Domain
When watching natural scenes, an overwhelming amount of information is delivered to the Human Visual System (HVS). The optic nerve is estimated to receive around 108 bits of information a second. This large amount of information can’t be processed right away through our neural system. Visual attention mechanism enables HVS to spend neural resources efficiently, only on the selected parts of the...
