Image matting is the problem of determining for each pixel in an image whether it is foreground, background, or the mixing parameter, ”alpha”, for those pixels that are a mixt...
In this paper, we formulate the image matting as one of solving energy minimization problems. Our approach has the following advantages. First, the matte estimation is modeled usin...
Image-based rendering (IBR) is an emerging technology for photo-realistic rendering of scenes from a collection of densely sampled images and videos. Recently, an object-based app...
We propose an algorithm that simultaneously extracts
disparities and alpha matting information given a stereo
image pair. Our method divides the reference image into
a set of ov...
