چکیده
In this paper, we formulate the image matting as one of solving energy minimization problems. Our approach has the following advantages. First, the matte estimation is modeled using an energy function as a MRF optimization problem. Second, the energy function combines the gradient of the matte, the gradient of the color and statistical sampling together to achieve global optimization. Third, the matte is directly reconstructed by solving energy equations. Experimental results show that our method is efficient to extract high quality mattes for foregrounds with complex natural images.

Coconut matting bezoar identified by a combined analytical approach.
A rare type of bezoar composed of coconut matting was found in the stomach of a caucasian man. The exact identity of the fibres was established by scanning electron microscopy, x-ray energy spectroscopy, and microscopic infrared spectroscopy. This report illustrates the importance of these techniques for identifying the nature of foreign material.
متن کاملImage and Video Matting: A Survey
Matting refers to the problem of accurate foreground estimation in images and video. It is one of the key techniques in many image editing and film production applications, thus has been extensively studied in the literature.

متن کاملVideo Matting Using Multi-frame Nonlocal Matting Laplacian
We present an algorithm for extracting high quality temporally coherent alpha mattes of objects from a video. Our approach extends the conventional image matting approach, i.e. closed-form matting, to video by using multi-frame nonlocal matting Laplacian. Our multi-frame nonlocal matting Laplacian is defined over a nonlocal neighborhood in spatial temporal domain, and it solves the alpha mattes...
متن کاملMRF Matting on Complex Images
This paper proposes a novel approach to solve the matting problem on complex images using Markov Random Field(MRF) model. Although many natural image matting methods have been proposed, matting on complex images still remains as a challenge. Our approach, which we call MRF matting, partitions the image manually into three regions: foreground, background, and unknown region. Then, the unknown re...
