Saliency Tree: A Novel Saliency Detection Framework [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2014
This paper proposes a novel saliency detection framework termed as saliency tree. For effective saliency measurement, the original image is first simplified using adaptive color quantization and region segmentation to partition the image into a set of primitive regions. Then, three measures, i.e., global contrast, spatial sparsity, and object prior are

Salience [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 20th annual meeting on Association for Computational Linguistics -, 1982
We argue that in domains where a strong notion of salience can be defined, it can be used to provide: (1) an elegant solution to the selection problem, i.e. the problem of how to decide whether a given fact should or should not be mentioned in the text; and (2) a simple and direct control framework for the entire deep generation process, coordinating ...

Haptic Saliency

open access: yesScholarpedia, 2015
Humans can distinguish many object and surface properties by touch. Some of these properties are highly salient: they are immediately perceived after just a brief touch. Since the processing of such features is apparently highly efficient, it is of interest to investigate which features are salient to touch and which are not.

open access: yes, 2013
Current accounts of attentional capture predict the most salient stimulus to be invariably selected first. However, existing salience and visual search models assume noise in the map computation or selection process.

Saliency Changes Appearance

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Numerous studies have suggested that the deployment of attention is linked to saliency. In contrast, very little is known about how salient objects are perceived. To probe the perception of salient elements, observers compared two horizontally aligned stimuli in an array of eight elements. One of them was salient because of its orientation or direction
