Title
An Edge-oriented Framework for Saliency Detection
Abstract
Confusing visual appearance and scattered small-scale patterns commonly exist in natural images, which forms a challenge for prior saliency detection methods. Inspired by the sensitivity to edge information of Human Visual Systems, we propose a universal edge-oriented framework to improve the performance of existing salient detection methods. Firstly, edge probability map is extracted from images and utilized to get edge-based over segmentation. Secondly, merging segments by a hierarchical model to generate edge regions. Finally, the proposed framework turns saliency detection to assign a saliency value to each edge region. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework.
