Abstract

The invention discloses a scale-selection-based top-down visual saliency extraction method. The method includes a training stage, namely learning to obtain a nonlinear model and find an optimal scale in a multi-scale combination for calculation of saliency; and a saliency calculating stage, namely and extracting a saliency map according to the optimal scale and the non-linear model obtained in the training stage. The method fully considers people's intentions and takes advantage of context of multiple scales, and the region of visual saliency related to the people's intentions is effectively extracted. The scale-selection-based top-down visual saliency extraction method is applicable to the fields of object detections and the like.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a visual saliency calculation method, in particular to a top-down visual saliency extraction method based on scale selection, belonging to the field of visual saliency. Background technique [0002] Visual attention is an important mechanism that helps the human visual system to recognize scenes accurately and effectively. Obtaining salient areas in an image is an important research topic in the field of computer vision. It can help the image processing system to reasonably allocate computing resources in the subsequent processing steps. Visually significant region extraction is widely used in many computer vision applications, such as object segmentation, object recognition, adaptive image compression, content-sensitive image scaling, image retrieval, etc. [0003] There are two types of visual saliency detection: fast, task-independent, data-driven bottom-up saliency detection and slower, task-related, target-driven top-do...
