Abstract

We propose a multi-layer graph based approach for salient object detection in natural images. Starting from a set of multi-scale image decomposition using superpixels, we propose an objective function optimized on a multi-layer graph structure to diffuse saliency from image borders to salient objects. After isolating the object kernel, we enhance the accuracy of our saliency maps through an objectness-like based refinement approach. Beside its simplicity, our algorithm yields very accurate salient objects with clear boundaries. Experiments have shown that our approach outperforms several recent methods dealing with salient object detection.
