TLDR
It is shown that the ability to access images at the level of objects is essential for CBIR, and the superiority of the approach over the global histogram approach is shown.Abstract:
We propose a content based image retrieval system based on object extraction through image segmentation. A general and powerful multiscale segmentation algorithm automates the segmentation process, the output of which is assigned novel colour and texture descriptors which are both efficient and effective. Query strategies consisting of a semi-automated and a fully automated mode are developed which are shown to produce good results. We then show the superiority of our approach over the global histogram approach which proves that the ability to access images at the level of objects is essential for CBIR.read more

Is physics-based liveness detection truly possible with a single image?
TL;DR: This work proposes and validate a novel physics-based method to detect images recaptured from printed material using only a single image, and shows that the classifier can be generalizable to contrast enhanced recapture images and LCD screen recaptured images without re-training, demonstrating the robustness of the approach.

A multiscale random field model for Bayesian image segmentation
Charles A. Bouman,M. Shapiro +1 more
TL;DR: Simulations on synthetic images indicate that the new algorithm performs better and requires much less computation than MAP estimation using simulated annealing, and is found to improve classification accuracy when applied to the segmentation of multispectral remotely sensed images with ground truth data.

Boundary detection by constrained optimization
TL;DR: A statistical framework is used for finding boundaries and for partitioning scenes into homogeneous regions and incorporates a measure of disparity between certain spatial features of block pairs of pixel gray levels, using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov nonparametric measures of difference between the distributions of these features.
