Evaluation of object detection algorithms is a non-trivial task: a detection result is usually evaluated by comparing the bounding box of the detected object with the bounding box...
Abstract. This paper presents an application of a hierarchical social (HS) metaheuristic to region-based segmentation. The original image is modelled as a simplified image graph, w...
In this paper, an efficient global algorithm for vectorizing line drawings is presented. It first extracts a seed segment of a graphic entity from a raster image to obtain its dir...
