Abstract EN
A novel algorithm for automatic foreground extraction based on difference of Gaussian (DoG) is presented.
In our algorithm, DoG is employed to find the candidate keypoints of an input image in different color layers.
Then, a keypoints filter algorithm is proposed to get the keypoints by removing the pseudo-keypoints and rebuilding the important keypoints.
Finally, Normalized cut (Ncut) is used to segment an image into several regions and locate the foreground with the number of keypoints in each region.
Experiments on the given image data set demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm.
