In this paper, we tackle the challenging task of unsupervised salient object detection (SOD) by leveraging spectral clustering on self-supervised features. We make the following contributions: (i) We revisit spectral clustering and…

In recent years, there has been a rapid progress in solving the binary problems in computer vision, such as edge detection which finds the boundaries of an image and salient object detection which finds the important object in an image.…

Image-based salient object detection (SOD) has been extensively studied in the past decades. However, video-based SOD is much less explored since there lack large-scale video datasets within which salient objects are unambiguously defined…

Human sketch has already proved its worth in various visual understanding tasks (e.g., retrieval, segmentation, image-captioning, etc). In this paper, we reveal a new trait of sketches - that they are also salient. This is intuitive as…

Evaluating, explaining, and visualizing high-level concepts in generative models, such as variational autoencoders (VAEs), is challenging in part due to a lack of known prediction classes that are required to generate saliency maps in…

The success of existing salient object detection models relies on a large pixel-wise labeled training dataset, which is time-consuming and expensive to obtain. We study semi-supervised salient object detection, with access to a small number…

Most existing salient object detection methods mostly use U-Net or feature pyramid structure, which simply aggregates feature maps of different scales, ignoring the uniqueness and interdependence of them and their respective contributions…

Recently salient object detection has witnessed remarkable improvement owing to the deep convolutional neural networks which can harvest powerful features for images. In particular, state-of-the-art salient object detection methods enjoy…

Optical Remote Sensing Image Salient Object Detection (ORSI-SOD) remains challenging due to complex backgrounds, low contrast, irregular object shapes, and large variations in object scale. Existing discriminative methods directly regress…

Severe background clutter is challenging in many computer vision tasks, including large-scale image retrieval. Global descriptors, that are popular due to their memory and search efficiency, are especially prone to corruption by such a…

Salient object detection is a problem that has been considered in detail and \textcolor{black}{many solutions have been proposed}. In this paper, we argue that work to date has addressed a problem that is relatively ill-posed. Specifically,…

Much of the recent efforts on salient object detection (SOD) have been devoted to producing accurate saliency maps without being aware of their instance labels. To this end, we propose a new pipeline for end-to-end salient instance…

Object detection (OD) is crucial to autonomous driving. On the other hand, unknown objects, which have not been seen in training sample set, are one of the reasons that hinder autonomous vehicles from driving beyond the operational domain.…

Video salient object detection models trained on pixel-wise dense annotation have achieved excellent performance, yet obtaining pixel-by-pixel annotated datasets is laborious. Several works attempt to use scribble annotations to mitigate…

Synthesizing high quality saliency maps from noisy images is a challenging problem in computer vision and has many practical applications. Samples generated by existing techniques for saliency detection cannot handle the noise perturbations…

Unsupervised video segmentation plays an important role in a wide variety of applications from object identification to compression. However, to date, fast motion, motion blur and occlusions pose significant challenges. To address these…

Natural environment and our interaction with it is essentially multisensory, where we may deploy visual, tactile and/or auditory senses to perceive, learn and interact with our environment. Our objective in this study is to develop a scene…

Salient object detection is inherently a subjective problem, as observers with different priors may perceive different objects as salient. However, existing methods predominantly formulate it as an objective prediction task with a single…

This paper proposes an Agile Aggregating Multi-Level feaTure framework (Agile Amulet) for salient object detection. The Agile Amulet builds on previous works to predict saliency maps using multi-level convolutional features. Compared to…

Salient object detection aims at detecting the most visually distinct objects and producing the corresponding masks. As the cost of pixel-level annotations is high, image tags are usually used as weak supervisions. However, an image tag can…
