L. Itti’s approach • Architecture: Gaussian Pyramids R,G,B,Y Gabor pyramids for q = {0º, 45º, 90º, 135º}
L. Itti’s approach • Center-surround Difference • Achieve center-surround difference through across-scale difference • Operated denoted by Q: Interpolation to finer scale and point-to-point subtraction • One pyramid for each channel: I(s), R(s), G(s), B(s), Y(s)where sÎ [0..8] is the scale
L. Itti’s approach • Center-surround Difference • Intensity Feature Maps • I(c, s) = | I(c)QI(s)| • cÎ {2, 3, 4} • s = c + d where dÎ {3, 4} • So I(2, 5) = | I(2) QI(5)|I(2, 6) = | I(2) QI(6)|I(3, 6) = | I(3) QI(6)| … • 6 Feature Maps
L. Itti’s approach Center-surround Difference Color Feature Maps Center-surround Difference Orientation Feature Maps Red-Green and Yellow-Blue Same c and s as with intensity +B-Y +Y-B +R-G +G-R +B-Y +G-R +Y-B +B-Y +R-G RG(c, s) = | (R(c) - G(c)) Q (G(s) - R(s)) | BY(c, s) = | (B(c) - Y(c)) Q (Y(s) - B(s)) |
L. Itti’s approach • Normalization Operator • Promotes maps with few strong peaks • Surpresses maps with many comparable peaks • Normalization of map to range [0…M] • Compute average m of all local maxima • Find the global maximum M • Multiply the map by (M – m)2
L. Itti’s approach Example of Operation: Inhibition of return
Frequency-tuned Image Average Gaussian blur
Multi-scale contrast • Saliency algorithm Multi-scale contrast Center-surround histogram Conditional Random Field Image Saliency map Color spatial-distribution
Multi-scale contrast Multi-scale contrast Center-surround histogram Distance between histograms of RGB color: • Local summation of laplacian pyramid
Multi-scale contrast • Color spatial-distribution The variance of Coordinate of pixel x and y Image(RGB) GMM Distance from pixel x to image center
Multi-scale contrast • Energy term: • Saliency object: • Pairwise feature:
Multi-scale contrast • CRF: • The derivative of the log-likelihood with respect to
Depth of field • As the spread of single lens reflex camera, more and more low depth of field(DOF) images are captured. • However, current saliency detection methods work poorly for the low DOF images.
Depth of field • Algorithm:
Depth of field • Classification: • Focal Point: In a low DOF image Rectangle with the highest edge density, and center is initial focal point DOG • Composition Analysis: segmentation Region
Spectral Residual Approach • First scaling image to 64x64. • Then we smoothed the saliency map with a gaussian filter g(x) ( = 8).
Global contrast-based • Histogram based contrast(Lab): Quantization of Lab Each channel to have 12 different value 85
Global contrast-based • Region based contrast • Segment the Image • [Efficient graph-based image segmentation]

Context-Aware • Goal: Convey the image content Liu et al, 2007
Context-Aware • Distance between a pair of patches: High salient
Context-Aware • Distance between a pair of patches: K most similar patches at scale r High for K most similar Saliency
Context-Aware • Salient at: • Multiple scales foreground • Few scales background Scale 1 Scale 4
Context-Aware • Foci = • Include distance map X

Measuring visual saliency by site entropy rate 2 A fully-connected graph representation is adopted for each
Measuring visual saliency by site entropy rate 3 A random walk is adopted on each sub-band graph. And Site entropy rate(SER) is measured the average information from a node to the other
Conclusion • Image processing is funny • Unusual in its neighborhood will correspond to high saliency weight • Contrast is the key of saliency
