—In this paper, we propose a novel predictive model, active volume model (AVM), for object boundary extraction. It is a dynamic “object” model whose manifestation includes a ...
We propose a novel Active Volume Model (AVM) which deforms in a free-form manner to minimize energy. Unlike Snakes and level-set active contours which only consider curves or surfa...
This paper describes an approach to attention based layout segmentation using general principles of the human visual perception to achieve this goal. The text is considered as tex...
In this paper we present a method to recognize shapes by analyzing a polygonal approximation of their boundaries. The method is independent of the used approximation method since i...
In this paper we define a Topological Tree (TT) as a knowledge representation method that aims to describe important visual and spatial features of image regions, namely the color...
