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...
Tracking groups of people is a highly informative task in surveillance, and it represents a still open and little explored issue. In this paper, we propose a brand new framework f...
We present a new method for multi-object segmentation in a maximum a posteriori estimation framework. Our method is motivated by the observation that neighboring or coupling objec...
Texture replacement in real images has many applications, such as interior design, digital movie making and computer graphics. The goal is to replace some specified texture patter...
Foreground detection is at the core of many video processing tasks. In this paper, we propose a novel video foreground detection method that exploits the statistics of 3D space-tim...
