Segmentation by Weighted Aggregation Detects the min-normalized-cut salient segments Linear in # of points (a few dozen operations per point) Orders of magnitude faster than…
Coarse-Scale Measurements • Average intensities of aggregates
Aggregate Measurements • Average intensities • Intensity variances (multiscale) • Direction alignment • Boundary alignment • Average “hair” orientation
