Image segmentation and border ownership assignment are two widely studied areas in the computer vision literature. It is well known that both the segmentation and the border ownership assignment play an important role in the visual perception. In this study, a Markov Random Fields model which provides a dual solution for the segmentation and the border ownership assignment is proposed. The proposed system is analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively.

Supervised mesh segmentation for 3D objects with graph Convolutional neural networks
Perek, Emir Kaan; Sahillioğlu, Yusuf; Department of Computer Engineering (2019)
Mesh segmentation is a fundamental application that is primarily used for understanding and analyzing 3D shapes in a broad range of areas in Computer Science. With the increasing trend of deep learning, there have been many learning-based solutions to the mesh segmentation problem based on the classification of the individual mesh polygons. In this thesis, we cast mesh segmentation as a supervised graph labeling problem by using Graph Convolutional Neural Networks (GCNN). We treat a mesh object as a graph t...
REAL-TIME ARBITRARY VIEW RENDERING ON GPU FROM STEREO VIDEO AND TIME-OF-FLIGHT CAMERA
Ates, Tugrul K.; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2011-05-18)
Generating in-between images from multiple views of a scene is a crucial task for both computer vision and computer graphics fields. Photorealistic rendering, 3DTV and robot navigation are some of many applications which benefit from arbitrary view synthesis, if it is achieved in real-time. GPUs excel in achieving high computation power by processing arrays of data in parallel, which make them ideal for real-time computer vision applications. This paper proposes an arbitrary view rendering algorithm by usin...
Image segmentation with unified region and boundary characteristics within recursive shortest spanning tree
Esen, E.; Alp, Y. K. (2007-06-13)
The lack of boundary information in region based image segmentation algorithms resulted in many hybrid methods that integrate the complementary information sources of region and boundary, in order to increase the segmentation performance. In compliance with this trend, we propose a novel method to unify the region and boundary characteristics within the canonical Recursive Shortest Spanning Tree algorithm. The main idea is to incorporate the boundary information in the distance metric of RSST with minor cha...
UTILIZATION OF SPATIAL INFORMATION FOR POINT CLOUD SEGMENTATION
Akman, Oytun; Bayramoglu, Neslihan; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Jonker, Pieter (2010-06-09)
Object segmentation has an important role in the field of computer vision for semantic information inference. Many applications such as 3DTV archive systems, 3D/2D model fitting, object recognition and shape retrieval are strongly dependent to the performance of the segmentation process. In this paper we present a new algorithm for object localization and segmentation based on the spatial information obtained via a Time-of-Flight (TOF) camera. 3D points obtained via a TOF camera are projected onto the major...
Comparison of multidimensional data access methods for feature-based image retrieval
Arslan, Serdar; Saçan, Ahmet; Açar, Esra; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; Yazıcı, Adnan (2010-11-18)
Within the scope of information retrieval, efficient similarity search in large document or multimedia collections is a critical task. In this paper, we present a rigorous comparison of three different approaches to the image retrieval problem, including cluster-based indexing, distance-based indexing, and multidimensional scaling methods. The time and accuracy tradeoffs for each of these methods are demonstrated on a large Corel image database. Similarity of images is obtained via a featurebased similarity...
