چکیده

We propose a method for drawing gaze to a given target in videos, by modulating the value of pixels based on the saliency map. The change of pixel values is described by enhancement maps, which are weighted combination of center-surround difference maps of intensity channel and two color opponency channels. Enhancement maps are applied to each video frame in the HSI color space to increase saliency in the target region, and to decrease that in the background. The TLD tracker is employed for tracking the target over frames. Saliency map is used to control the strength of modulation. Moreover, a pre-enhancement step is introduced for accelerating computation, and a post-processing module helps to eliminate flicker. Experimental results show that this method is effective in drawing attention of subjects, but the problem of flicker may rise in minor cases.

Compressed-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...

Multi-Feature Based Visual Saliency Detection in Surveillance Video

The perception of video is different from that of image because of the motion information in video. Motion objects lead to the difference between two neighboring frames which is usually focused on. By far, most papers have contributed to image saliency but seldom to video saliency. Based on scene understanding, a new video saliency detection model with multi-features is proposed in this paper. ...

A Saliency Detection Model via Fusing Extracted Low-level and High-level Features from an Image

Saliency regions attract more human’s attention than other regions in an image. Low- level and high-level features are utilized in saliency region detection. Low-level features contain primitive information such as color or texture while high-level features usually consider visual systems. Recently, some salient region detection methods have been proposed based on only low-level features or hig...
