Contributions

  • Form the saliency detection as a deep level set optimization problem
  • Guided Super-pixel Filtering to propagate saliency information

Deep level sets for salient object detection

1. Formulation of Level Sets

2. Level sets for Deep saliency

The energy function

Average saliency values

Gradients

Guided Super-pixel Filtering

  1. Guided image filter is an explicit image filtering algorithm, edge-preserving and gradient-preserving

  2. Over segment image into super-pixels and do a graph-based guided filtering
