Image segmentation based on pairwise pixel similarities has been a very active field of research in recent years. The drawbacks common to these segmentation methods are the enormou...
A general geometrical framework for image processing is presented. We consider intensity images as surfaces in the (x I) space. The image is thereby a two dimensional surface in t...
Symmetry is an effective geometric cue to facilitate conventional segmentation techniques on images of man-made environment. Based on three fundamental principles that summarize t...

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...
In this paper a method for image segmentation using an opposition-based reinforcement learning scheme is introduced. We use this agent-based approach to optimally find the appropri...
