Abstract. Given an image, digital matting consists in extracting a foreground element from the background. Standard methods are initialized with a trimap, a partition of the image ...
High dimensional data that lies on or near a low dimensional manifold can be described by a collection of local linear models. Such a description, however, does not provide a glob...

Digital video applications exploit the intrinsic structure of video sequences. In order to obtain and represent this structure for video annotation and indexing tasks, the main ini...
Image matting is the task of estimating a fore- and background
layer from a single image. To solve this ill posed
problem, an accurate modeling of the scene’s appearance
is ne...
