Summary: | In this paper, we present a novel method to detect salient object based on multi-level cues. First, a proposal processing scheme is developed by various object-level saliency cues to generate an initial saliency map. For the sake of more accurate object boundaries, a two-stage optimization mechanism is then proposed upon superpixel-level. Finally, the superpixel-level saliency map is further improved to construct the final saliency map by applying superpixel-to-pixel mapping. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm performs favorably against the state-of-art saliency detection methods in terms of different evaluation metrics on several benchmark datasets. |
