Comparison of Some Thresholding Algorithms for Text/Background Segmentation in Difficult Document Images
A number of techniques have previously been proposed for effective thresholding of document images. In this paper two new thresholding techniques are proposed and compared against...

Blue Screen Matting
A classical problem of imaging--the matting problem--is separation of a non-rectangular foreground image from a (usually) rectangular background image--for example, in a film fram...

Top down image segmentation using congealing and graph-cut
This paper develops a weakly supervised algorithm that learns to segment rigid multi-colored objects from a set of training images and key points. The approach uses congealing to ...

Graph-based foreground extraction in extended color space
We propose a region-based method to extract semantic foreground regions from color video sequences with static backgrounds. First, we introduce a new distance measure for backgrou...

Accelerated hardware video object segmentation: From foreground detection to connected components labelling
This paper demonstrates the use of a single-chip FPGA for the segmentation of moving objects in a video sequence. The system maintains highly accurate background models, and integ...
