In this paper, we propose techniques to make use of two complementary bottom-up features, image edges and texture patches, to guide top-down object segmentation towards higher pre...

Saliency detection is a well researched problem in computer vision. In previous work, most of the effort is spent on manually devising a saliency measure. Instead we propose a sim...
Thyroid nodule segmentation is a hard task due to different echo structures, textures and echogenicities in ultrasound (US) images as well as speckle noise. Currently, a typical c...

We investigate the problem of pedestrian detection in
still images. Sliding window classifiers, notably using the
Histogram-of-Gradient (HOG) features proposed by Dalal

We propose a method to detect objects and patterns in textures on general surfaces. Our approach applies the Chan?Vese variational model for active contours without edges to the p...
