The goal in image segmentation is to label pixels in an image based on the properties of each pixel and its surrounding region. Recently Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) has e...
An interactive human segmentation approach is described. Given regions of interest provided by users, the approach iteratively estimates segmentation via a generalized EM algorith...

We propose a scheme to introduce directionality in the Random Walker algorithm for image segmentation. In particular, we extend the optimization framework of this algorithm to com...
The algorithm presented in this paper aims to segment the foreground objects in video (e.g., people) given timevarying, textured backgrounds. Examples of time-varying backgrounds ...
This paper introduces a novel energy minimization method, namely iterated cross entropy with partition strategy (ICEPS), into the Markov random field theory. The solver, which is...
