Real-Time Maintenance of Figure-Ground Segmentation
نویسندگان
چکیده
An approach to figure-ground segmentation based on a 2dimensional histogram in feature space is presented. The histogram is then analyzed with a peak-finding algorithm designed with real-time performance in mind. The most significant peaks in the histogram are backprojected to the image to produce an object mask. The method is applied to segmentation based on a 2-D color space and also on a combination of motion and stereo disparities. Experiments with a system grabbing images direct from a CCD-camera with real-time performance having typical frame-rates of about 10 Hz is presented.

Foveated Figure-Ground Segmentation and Its Role in Recognition
Figure-ground segmentation and recognition are two interrelated processes. In this paper we present a method for foveated segmentation and evaluate it in the context of a binocular real-time recognition system. Segmentation is solved as a binary labeling problem using priors derived from the results of a simplistic disparity method. Doing so we are able to cope with situations when the disparit...
متن کاملIncremental Figure-Ground Segmentation Using Localized Adaptive Metrics in LVQ
Vector quantization methods are confronted with a model selection problem, namely the number of prototypical feature representatives to model each class. In this paper we present an incremental learning scheme in the context of figure-ground segmentation. In presence of local adaptive metrics and supervised noisy information we use a parallel evaluation scheme combined with a local utility func...
متن کاملQuantitative Comparison of SPM, FSL, and Brainsuite for Brain MR Image Segmentation
Background: Accurate brain tissue segmentation from magnetic resonance (MR) images is an important step in analysis of cerebral images. There are software packages which are used for brain segmentation. These packages usually contain a set of skull stripping, intensity non-uniformity (bias) correction and segmentation routines. Thus, assessment of the quality of the segmented gray matter (GM), ...
متن کاملImage Segmentation by Discounted Cumulative Ranking on Maximal Cliques
We propose a mid-level image segmentation framework that combines multiple figure-ground hypothesis (FG) constrained at different locations and scales, into interpretations that tile the entire image. The problem is cast as optimization over sets of maximal cliques sampled from the graph connecting non-overlapping, putative figure-ground segment hypotheses. Potential functions over cliques comb...
متن کاملInterleaved object categorization and segmentation
Historically, figure-ground segmentation has been seen as an important and even necessary precursor for object recognition. In that context, segmentation is mostly defined as a data driven, that is bottom-up, process. As for humans object recognition and segmentation are heavily intertwined processes, it has been argued that top-down knowledge from object recognition can and should be used for ...
