Abstract

Human eye is perceptually more sensitive to certain colors and intensities and objects with such features are considered more salient. Detection of salient image regions is useful for applications like image segmentation, adaptive compression, and region-based image retrieval. In this paper we propose a method to first determine salient regions in images using low-level features of luminance and color and then extract the features. The method is fast, easy to implement and generates high quality saliency maps of the same size and resolution as the input image. We identify salient regions as those regions of an image that are visually more conspicuous by virtue of their contrast with respect to surrounding regions.
