Saliency detection aims to detect the most attractive objects in images, which has been widely used as a foundation for various multimedia applications. In this paper, we propose a novel salient object detection algorithm for RGB-D images using center-dark channel prior. First, we generate an initial saliency map based on a color saliency map and a depth saliency map of a given RGB-D image. The...

In this study, geographic information system (GIS)-based, analytic hierarchy process (AHP) techniques were used to identify groundwater potential zones provide insight decisionmakers and local authorities for present future planning. Ten different geo-environmental factors, such as slope, topographic wetness index, geomorphology, drainage density, lithology, lineament rainfall, soil type, thick...

In this paper, we propose an efficient framework for edge-preserving stereo matching. Local methods for stereo matching are more suitable than global methods for real-time applications. Moreover, we can obtain accurate depth maps by using edge-preserving filter for the cost aggregation process in local stereo matching. The computational cost is high, since we must perform the filter for every n...
